Hello All,
I have a need to do some custom drawing within a menu item of a
NSPopUpButtonCell. Essentially, within the menu item I need to draw
the title to the left (like normal) and then a tagword to the right
in red and in a bit smaller font. For example:
My Item Title LATE
where 'LATE' is drawn in red and right justified in the cell.
This is fairly straightforward to do for the quiescent state of the
popup: just override drawWithFrame and render a couple of attributed
strings.
But I'm having a dickens's of a time figuring out how to get what I
want when the popup is popped up! There doesn't appear to be a
convenient rendering function that I can override that renders the
menu item while being popped up.
Surely I am missing something obvious here. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Mike
