Hi Ryan,

What I suggested (as #4) is more like what you describe as #3 -
creating a tooltip rect for each cell. Only, it should be easy to
optimize what I described; if it's live resizing, no need to reset
the tooltips until it's done - if the cell isn't on-screen, don't
bother giving it a tooltip until it is...
thanks for your help! That's essentially what I'm doing now.
But I decided to move the code to a subclass of NSTableView.
It manages a directory of tool tip rects that are added/replaced
whenever a cell is drawn.
On reloadData all tool tip rects are removed.
Since all affected cells are redrawn when a column is resized, it
works fine in that case.
There's still one case where it may fail: I'm not sure if the table
view redraws cells if columns are moved.
I think it does. I'm getting the -tableView:willDisplayCell:... message
when I move the columns.
I still think using a custom cell to handle the tooltips is the way to
go. I've done (basically) what you're doing already and what I ended up
with was a mess.
If anyone is interrested in my solution, it's available at
