Your problem is that you're fighting the frameworks. Create your own
custom NSButton/NSButtonCell classes, move your drawing routines to
the cell class, and be done with it. It's *not* that much harder and
you get all the free, wonderful things that come with a
much-better-designed UI element than a simple NSView with an
overridden -mouseDown: method could give you.
Oh, and read up on the Target/Action mechanisms in Cocoa.
