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

You have to subclass NSTableView, and rewrite the functions below in order to change the alternating colors.

• (void) drawRow: (NSInteger) row clipRect: (NSRect) clipRect

• (void) drawBackgroundInClipRect: (NSRect) clipRect ** This one to change the main and alternate color **

Use a for loop and insert this conditional (i % 2 == 0) to detect odd and even rows.
