Some of us need to ask questions properly. You explicitly said, "Is there a recommended manner to accomplish this?". I told you where to find the recommended use of NSSegmentedControl. Then in a later note you said "I want to do this whether it's recommended or not." Fine, but that's the exact opposite of your original question. Asking the wrong question is like kissing a frog - it won't get you anything and it annoys the frog. m.
