Hello and thanks for your reply!

I will check that doc out, but one thing I am trying to do now doesn't seem to work. In my XCode project, I added a PNG image, and then dragged it onto the Interface Builder. I can add this image to my GUI and it will work well, however, if I set this image back (Layout -> Bring to back), it appears as a background image in the Interface Builder with all GUI elements on top, but in the actual application this image covers all GUI elements (i.e. all you can see in the GUI is this image).

Is it possible to simply make a custom background image for the GUI right from the Interface Builder?


Thanks again very much,

Artemiy.

You will need to use your own custom NSView subclass and override the -drawRect: method. There you will set the color you want and fill the view's bounds with it.

  This will get you started:
