Scrolling text in Status Item


  • Subject: Scrolling text in Status Item

I need to create an NSStatusItem which displays a bit of horizontally scrolling text, much like the messages the airport menu extra displays about connection status and so on.

My hunch is that the best approach is to create a View-based NSStatusItem with a static width, and do some sort of animation with the text. I've never done anything like this, though, so any advice, pointers, samples would be really helpful.

thanks
