Does anyone have some experience subclassing NSTabView in order to
have a custom look for the tab view and the tabs themselves ?
Before even considering doing something like this, you should realise
that Apple have expended a great deal of effort making sure that their
user interface is both attractive and consistent. Granted, the tabs
aren't really very pretty, but even so, they are the standard. If you
make them look like something else, there is a fair chance that they
will look out of place (making your app. look ugly), or confuse users.
Go and tell my client who paid thousands of dollars paying deisgners to
build a pretty ugly GUI ;o)
