So there's no chance of a custom colour or radius? I'm sure I've seen
apps that do the radius.

Hi list, I'm looking to drop a custom shadow on my window, but I'm

I am assuming that NSShadow is used for this, but I guess this may
not be the case.
Is it possible to set a custom shadow on an NSWindow? I can't see any
way to achieve this.
The system creates the shadow under a window based on its actual
shape, including irregular shapes (ie when using a background with an
alpha). You may disable it, but that's all, at least for documented
APIs.
NSShadow is used to create shadows in view you make. You may paint it
on the content view of a trasparent window without a shadow of its own
to create a custom-shaped shadow.
