Change selection color on view-based NSTableView

Question

Standard highlighting color in OS X applications is blue.

Is it possible to change it to another color, e.g. gray?

Note that I am using the new view-based

Answer 1

I've mixed all methods described before and got code that exactly do what I want.

• Selection not change color of textfields inside;
• Rows remember selection and color of one;

• Any strange outer borders and other leftovers appear.

  class AudioCellView: NSTableRowView {
  
      override func draw(_ dirtyRect: NSRect) {
          super.draw(dirtyRect)
          self.wantsLayer = true
          self.layer?.backgroundColor = NSColor.white.cgColor
      }
  
      override var isEmphasized: Bool {
          set {}
          get {
              return false
          }
      }
  
      override var selectionHighlightStyle: NSTableView.SelectionHighlightStyle {
          set {}
          get {
              return .regular
          }
      }
  
      override func drawSelection(in dirtyRect: NSRect) {
          if self.selectionHighlightStyle != .none {
              let selectionRect = NSInsetRect(self.bounds, 2.5, 2.5)
              NSColor(calibratedWhite: 0.85, alpha: 0.6).setFill()
              let selectionPath = NSBezierPath.init(rect: selectionRect)
              selectionPath.fill()
          }
      }
  }
