Loginwindow Banner Friday, August 10 2007 @ 12:30 am CDT Contributed by: MacTroll Little known, but highly useful.
If you have a need to put danger text into your loginwindow you have a few options. The easy one is edit the com.apple.loginwindow.plist file and put your banner text in there. The slightly harder, but much sexier version is to use the bannersample project that's part of the 10.4 Developer Tools.
On a machine with the dev tools installed on navigate to /Developer/Examples/Security/bannersample and open up the bannersample.xcodeproj file in Xcode. Read the readme file and start poking around with Interface Builder on the included .nib file.
Using this project you'll be able to have a sheet that comes down in front of the login window and is able to display graphics, text or even WebKit views if you want. Go crazy and have fun. |
