  • Thread-topic: Custom control with 4 vertical sliders

Don¹t use NSMatrix.  Use NSCollectionView.  I have a popover containing a
collection view with sliders and all kinds of other stuff.  Depending on
what you are doing, you may need to make the thing create a new view for
every collection class element instead of just replicating the prototype.
(I have individual QTmovie thumbnails playing in mine.)  You will need to
subclass the collection view to do this.  However, from your description,
that should not be necessary.  The standard prototype view should work
without subclassing the collection view.
