The recommended way to override the text color in an NSTableView NSTextFieldCell is detailed here:
http://www.cocoabuilder.com/archive/message/cocoa/2008/11/5/222008.

However, there seems to be a problem setting the text color of a highlighted NSTextFieldCell when NSTableView - selectionHighlightStyle is set to NSTableViewSelectionHighlightStyleSourceList.

The following delegate method produces uneven text coloration of highlighted text cells.

The issue does not arise for non source list style NSTableViews.

/*

tableview will display cell

*/
- (void)tableView:(NSTableView *)aTableView willDisplayCell: (id)aCell forTableColumn:(NSTableColumn *)aTableColumn row: (NSInteger)rowIndex
{
// note that when the NSTableView Highlight mode is set to source list
        // setting the text color of NSTextFieldCell seems to misbehave.
        if ([aCell isKindOfClass:[NSTextFieldCell class]]) {
                if ([aCell isHighlighted]) {
                        [aCell setTextColor: [NSColor lightGrayColor]];
                } else {
                        [aCell setTextColor: [NSColor darkGrayColor]];
                }
        }
}

Has anyone else encountered this?

Work around solution is probably to use NSAttributedString.

That is the only solution at the time. Could you log a bug for this?

Bug logged.
Bug ID: 6679161

NSTableView attempts to apply "standard attributes" for the highlighted cell, if plain text is given to the cell via the datasource.
