Re: NSTableView, highlight color

[Marko Riedel]

Hi there,

thanks for your reply, very helpful as always. My priority at this time is to 
implement the features requested of the application that I'm working on, so I 
decided not to spend too much time on this and for now, confine myself to 
changing the table background. (The goal was to improve legibility for an end 
user who found that the black on dark grey was hard to read.)

Best regards,

Marko
