How can I get this look in my application? I would like to have a list of quick actions like in the attached image. the second button to the left. I have not seen any way to do this in IB. Is there a programmatic way to do this.

That action/gear popup menu button is something that has also intrigued me for a while now. I know that it has been suggested several times on this list to use subclasses of NSPopUpButton/NSPopUpButtonCell in order to get a borderless popup button without any margins around the image (the default NSPopUpButton implementation seems to impose some padding around the image). However, several nib files from Apple apps and third party apps simply feature a simple, plain, non-custom classed NSPopUpButton, in the place where one of these action menus appears. So, does anyone know of any trick that makes it possible to use a plain NSPopUpButton to achieve this, instead of having to go into subclass madness?
