Shadows & NSWindow question

Subject: Shadows & NSWindow question
From: David Aames <email@hidden>

Hello all,

I've been having some trouble with transparent windows for a while now and I've sorted them all out except one. The problem is when I'm using a transparent window with opaque NSViews - the shadow of the NSViews is also calculated and composited but I do not want this. I want the behavior of Terminal (i.e., if you have it transparent the text doesn't drop a shadow below the window). I've heard that Terminal had the ugly shadow of the text at some in 10.3 but it was fixed. So I'm looking for a way to tell NSWindow that I *only* want shadows *around the borders of the window* and _not_ around every NSView. If there isn't such an option, what's is the way to implement my own window shadow?

Kind regards,
David
