White highlighted appearance for icons in NSSegmentedCell
-
Hello,
I have a segmented control in my app that behaves like Finder's View
control in its toolbar. I'd like each icon in the control to change to
white when it's selected. Is there a way to do this without
subclassing or changing segment images manually?

If you use a template image, everything should be automatic:

sses/NSImage_Class/Reference/Reference.html#/
/apple_ref/occ/instm/NSImage/setTemplate:

Unfortunately this code needs to run on Tiger.

The only way to do that in Tiger is to use an undocumented method &
supply your own white icons. You're best off just making the cell
available only in Leopard if at all possible.
