Thanks for the advice.

Searching more through the archives, I did find:

http://www.joar.com/code/body.html

which seems to do what I want and subclasses a NSCell.

Could you provide some information on what problems I will run into going the route suggested by joar?


One problem is navigation; keyboard users expect to be able to tab to those items -- you won't be able to do that. Editing items may also not work, and have trouble. You may also have issues with selecting things, and getting background colors correct.


Ah. I was hoping that these problems would involve things I am not interested in, but sadly, they are.

So, my next idea which I think will work well since I don't need a table header, is to dynamically create a remove columns based on the width of the table and create a remove rows as needed. Then, each cell in the table is simply one of the images I need drawn. Since I need to be able to support editing the label of the image, this seems like it would be the easiest route to go regardless.


I filed the bug - rdar://6455493

thanks! It is useful to know how many people are wanting this feature.

Well, here's hoping for support in 10.6 and that everyone reading this who wants the feature files a bug report and also mentions the new report in this thread.
