You can try to draw things in drawRect: method, like this (from memory)

-(void)drawRect:(NSRect)aRect
{
NSBezierPath *surface = [ NSBezierPath bezierPathWithRect: [ self
bounds ]];
[[ NSColor redColor ] set ];
[ surface fill ];
[ super drawRect: aRect ];
}

Catch mouseDown events (see NSResponder documentation) and change the
color, or contour like above

Let me re-formulate :
You have a NSScrollView, that contains a NSSplitView, with multiple
NSView's inside ? And you want them to be selectable ?
Am I right ?

I would try to subclass NSSplitView to add an instance variable holding
the current selection.
This way, each subview would be able to send a [[ self superview ]
setSelection: self ]; so that your NSSplitView would be able to notify
the old selection to return to a normal background.

If somebody has a better idea... :-)
