NSMatrix drag & drop

My little iPhoto-like app is coming along. Selection and drag & drop are mostly working. I have a few new questions:

1. NSMatrix's mouseDown() function eats drag events. Is there a clean way to overrride it so I can get drag events without having to re-implement all the shift-click, cmd-click, double click logic?

2. Is there a way to change the highlight color of NSImageCells that works well with NSImageFrameGrayBezel frame styles?

3. How do I get the cursor to change into a "+" arrow when I drag an image to the finder? Right now I am putting a TIFF on the pasteboard. Is that the problem? I plan on putting file names there eventually.

Dave

P.S. Here are the appropriate bits of my code:

#1

in my NSMatrix subclass:

- (void)mouseDown:(NSEvent *)event
{
// need to override this because NSMatrix eats drag events
int row, col;

if ([self getRow: &row column: &col forPoint:[self convertPoint:[event locationInWindow] fromView: nil]]) {
// $$$ need to catch modifier keys and do the right thing (shift click or CMD click)
// $$$ send double action, etc
[self selectCellAtRow: row column: col];
[self sendAction];
} else {
[super mouseDown: event];
}
}

#2

in my NSImageCell subclass:

- (void)drawInteriorWithFrame:(NSRect) cellFrame inView: (NSView *) controlView
{
if (_cFlags.highlighted) {
// $$$ doesn't look very good; maybe I need to blend in a round rect of the highlight color?
NSColor* controlColor = [NSColor selectedControlColor];
[controlColor set];
NSRectFillUsingOperation(cellFrame, NSCompositeCopy);
}
[super drawInteriorWithFrame: picFrame inView: controlView];
}

#3

in my NSMatrix subclass:

- (unsigned int)draggingSourceOperationMaskForLocal:(BOOL)flag
{
return NSDragOperationCopy;
}

- (void)startDrag:(NSEvent *)event
{
NSPasteboard *pb = [NSPasteboard pasteboardWithName: NSDragPboard];
NSImage *dragImage;
NSImage *scaledImage;
NSPoint dragPoint;
int row, col;
NSRect theDraggedCellFrame;

[self getRow:&row column:&col forPoint: [self convertPoint:[event locationInWindow] fromView:nil]];
scaledImage = [[self cellAtRow:row column:col] scaledImage];
theDraggedCellFrame = [self cellFrameAtRow:row column:col];
dragPoint = NSMakePoint(
theDraggedCellFrame.origin.x + (m_cellSize.width - [scaledImage size].width) / 2,
theDraggedCellFrame.origin.y + [scaledImage size].height +
(m_cellSize.height - [scaledImage size].height) / 2);

[pb declareTypes: [NSArray arrayWithObjects: NSTIFFPboardType, nil] owner: self];
[pb setData:[scaledImage TIFFRepresentation] forType:NSTIFFPboardType];

dragImage = [[NSImage alloc] initWithSize: [scaledImage size]];
[dragImage lockFocus];
[scaledImage dissolveToPoint: NSZeroPoint fraction: .5];
[dragImage unlockFocus];
[self dragImage: dragImage
at: dragPoint
offset: NSZeroSize
event: event
pasteboard: pb
source: self
slideBack: YES];
[dragImage release];
}
