Frederick,

What I want to do is to let a NSButton wotk the same way as for example
the "Bold"-menu item that is "provided for free" with the Format-menu,
or the Font-menu.
I just tried in IB hooking up a button sending -addFontTraits: to NSFontManager, and it works expectedly.
Note the button tag needs to be set to 2 the bold font trait.

I tried it with a "Cocoa Application", and then it kind of semi-works with a single nib-file. Only problem is that my connected NSButton can not "unbold" as the menu does (And no selected state as the menus).

And when having a document based app, with the menu in another nib than the NSButton hooked up to NSFontManager, it does not work at all :/

My ugly solution is to extend NSTextField, add bold:, italic: methods, and let them send key events. Very awkward.
