Put the custom view in a NSClipView and
[_clipView setDrawsBackground:YES] ;
[_clipView setBackgroundColor:[NSColor clearColor]] ;
…assuming you added an outlet on the NSClipView…
(tested here…)

Hello Stephane,
this won't do the trick. Thanks for the suggestion anyway.
ClearColor sounded good to me until I tried it ;-).
I probably wasn't clear enough on what I want to achieve. Therefore
I compiled a little sample project. The result looks like this:
http://www.tv-apathy.de/samplecode/clearview.png
The top view is a NSTextview, and as you can see, it is transparent
(you can see XCode behind it). The bottom view is my custom view
(ViewDock) which I can't get this transparent as the NSTextView. If
you (anybody) likes to give it a try, please take a look at the
project. You may download it from here: http://www.tv-apathy.de/
samplecode/ClearView.zip
Cheers,
Michael

Hi John,
thanks for the hint, I know that example. Unfortunately that's
not what I want: It uses a complete transparent window (setting
the alpha of the whole window). I only want the area which my
view covers to be transparent (like a whole in the window so to
speak). This can be achieved using a NSTextView, bat I can't
accomplish it using a custom (NSView derived) view.
