Playing with this a bit more, it appears that I need to also do:

- (id)_highlightColorForCell:(NSCell *)cell
{
// we need to override this to return nil

// in any OS before leopard

// you can also return a color if you simply want to change the table's default selection color
return nil;
}


Or it will ignore my highlight drawing entirely. It appears this is an undocumented API or, at least, I cannot locate it in the documentation.

If a method starts with an underscore, don't even bother looking it up in the documentation :) -- not only is it undocumented, but it is unsupported and might change in the future.


The proper thing to do:

1. Subclass NSCell, NSTextFieldCell, or whatever other cell you want.
2. Override:

- (NSColor *)highlightColorWithFrame:(NSRect)cellFrame inView: (NSView *)controlView

and return nil.

How would I go about subclassing NSTextFieldCell & NSImageCell and then using these cell with my NSTableView?
