Jerry,
I get the idea, but...

You're right. I forgot the fact that you can only have NSToolbarItems (or subclasses of it) in a NSToolbar. I tried an NSView and it didn't work, as expected. I am thinking too much about the code from the Button Madness sample.
I tried using NSToolbar's -insertItemWithItemIdentifier:atIndex to put the NSToolbarItemGroup in the toolbar, but it does't work either.
I have a NSSearchField too, and it was a piece of cake to get working.

Yes, I could do it in IB, if only I knew how to put the labels below each segment, which is my ultimate goal here.
The best I can do in IB is to set the label for the whole NSSegmentedControl -- with spaces, like "Reply Reply All Forward" -- and adjust the widths so it aligns correctly. It doesn't look bad, but doesn't seem right, though.
If there's a way to do it from IB, I'll post a question in xcode-users, which seems more appropriate for IDE-related questions. I still think I have to do it in code, because I tried every single option in IB and didn't get it to work.
Cheers,
Flavio_______________________________________________
