If the button class is busted on Jaguar, you might be able to work
around it by subclassing NSButtonCell for that instance and writing
your own drawing method that manually draws correctly on OS version <
10.3. On 10.3 and above you would just call the existing superclass
method.
Just a thought.

Greetings CocoaDev!
I'm dealing with a problem similar to one that I've found mentioned on
the list before ("Re: setHidden: on MacOS 10.2" Date: Thu, 29 Apr 2004
12:53:17 +0200) but that one doesn't seem to have a clear resolution
and isn't an exact match for my issue. I don't want the button to be
hidden completely, just have a transparent image and be placed on a
transparent window (per the Apple round transparent window example). I
tried using NSButton's "setTransparent:" method, but as the docs say,
it prevents the button from being drawn, and that's not what I'm
looking for.
I've got an NSButton with a transparent tiff graphic that works just
swell under Panther, but under Jaguar, it's not transparent, or, it's
transparent but shows the corduroy background even though it's on a
transparent window (the transparent window itself seems to work fine
on both Panther and Jaguar).
The button with image is created in IB using a tiff image in my Xcode
project that was created in Photoshop.
I've put up some sample images and description on a website for your
review, but really I just want to know what I'm doing wrong or if this
isn't possible under Jaguar.
Please see:

for enlarged images showing the difference.
If you can help, please cc me directly on the answer as I only get the
Cocoa-dev digests and I'm eager to get this fixed ASAP!
THANK YOU!
Joe

You are in a maze of testy little Java VMs, all subtly different.
