Thanks Uli, though I found NSPathControl quite easy to get to do what I wanted in the end - I guess I got too hung up on the 'URL' APIs and overlooked the usual -setStringValue: that it inherits.
Elsewhere, I have a very heavily modded UKDistributedView we could talk about... ;-)

NSPathControl does some neat things like fading overlong text within a subcell that I could use, as well as displaying an icon and a triangle for the next item. What about subclassing the subcell? I guess I'm just looking for some direction here or even better, some code out there I can use.
