Rakka - unfortunately the last I checked Apple doesn't offer much in
the way of helping for this type of situation. Once you override the
default NSStatusItem view, you have to take over all of the drawing,
including the highlighted drawing you want to get a "menu-style" cilck.
I agree this is a total pain in the neck. Making a custom
NSStatusItem that behaves as the user expects it to is not a simple
feat.

I want the borderless window to show up when I click the statusItem.
For example, if I have a statusitem with a custom view, how am I
supposed to make it look as if it has been highlighted when clicked,
unhighlight and close the borderless when the mouse goes away, and all
the other behaviour of a regular statusItem? Really confusing me :P
Thanks.
I know I have to do all the mousedown things, etc. but are there any
examples I could have in making it act like a regular statusitem but
just with a borderless window instead of a menu?
