I don't think that's available for free members though...

But now that I know it's called, I did a search and found this:
<http://www.trystx.com/development.html>

A full-out application that uses the raised editor, and you can download the source for free.

There is a sample app called RaisedEditor that demonstrates exactly how to do this. It is in the WWDC 2003 sample code which i think you can download from developer.apple.com.

Hey all,

I'm trying to make a shadowed text view like in Address Book and iCal, and I've succeeded in making the shadow and gray outline, but what would be the best way to draw the text in the right place and highlight it when it's selected?

Here's my drawRect: method (most of this code is from Jeremy Dronfield):


- (void)drawRect:(NSRect)aRect
{
NSTextView * textView = [controller textView];

NSRange charRange = NSMakeRange(0, [[[textView textStorage] characters] count]);
NSRange glyphRange = [[textView layoutManager] glyphRangeForCharacterRange:charRange actualCharacterRange:nil];
NSRect rect = [[textView layoutManager] boundingRectForGlyphRange:glyphRange inTextContainer:[textView textContainer]];


NSColor *backgroundColor = [NSColor whiteColor];
[backgroundColor set];

NSRectFill([self bounds]);


NSColor *fillColor = [NSColor whiteColor];
NSColor *outlineColor = [NSColor grayColor];

NSShadow *viewShadow = [[NSShadow alloc] init];
[viewShadow setShadowOffset:NSMakeSize(3.5, -3.5)];
[viewShadow setShadowBlurRadius:6.5];

[fillColor setFill];
[outlineColor setStroke];

NSBezierPath *outline = [NSBezierPath bezierPathWithRect:rect];
[outline setLineWidth:1.0];
[outline setLineJoinStyle:NSMiterLineJoinStyle];
[outline stroke];
[viewShadow set];
[outline fill]; // <- important to put the shadow on the fill, not the stroke

[viewShadow release];
}
