Menu-less popup buttons

In Carbon, one can create a popup button without the selected item visible by creating the control in IB and shrinking it down to just the width of the disclosure arrow (24 pixels). This does not work with Cocoa's NSPopUpButton; the attempt causes the selected item area to intrude on the disclosure arrow area. My question: Can you either 1) get the Cocoa button to draw the way the Carbon one does, 2) Embed the Carbon version into a Cocoa window (my attempts at this have failed miserably), or 3) Create a control that's just the arrow instead of the entire popup menu?
