Customise NSPathControl

I would like to make a custom NSPathControl. NSPathCell has the method + pathComponentCellClass, where you can return the custom class of the component cells. I have a NSPathComponentCell subclass, which I return right there, but it doesn't work. The method does not get called. Why?

In the documentation is says:

Subclasses can override this method to return a custom cell class that is automatically used. By default, the method returns [NSPathComponentCell class], or a specialized subclass thereof.

If this is wrong, is there another way to customise NSPathControl?

Solution

  • I found the solution and posted it on github. I subclassed from NSPathControl. It's pretty simple actually.
