I played a bit with NSTextFieldCell and found out that I have to implement the "-(void)drawWithFrame:(NSRect)cellFrame inView:(NSView *)controlView" method to change the content of it's controlView. The question I have is how can I change the content of this view?

OK, I'm not a Cocoa expert yet, but I'll take a shot at this.

First, subclass NSTextFieldCell and override the -stringValue method (see NSCell) to return @"*****" if the user has selected this preference.

Then in interface builder, select the text cell in the table that will be displaying this field, and set the class to your new NSTextFieldCell subclass.

That's about it.
