Maybe this is too simplistic, but isn’t there a solution where the icons are subviews of another view that has vibrancy turned off, not directly of the window content view? Or, in the worst case, a two-window solution where the icons are in a non-vibrant window positioned over the vibrant background window? > From the limited discussion in the AppKit Release Note and the WWWDC 220 > video, I gather that I could accomplish this by setting the > NSVisualEffectView's maskImage property to encompass everything in my window > except the icon image, but I have no idea how to create an inverse mask image. Because … it’s an issue of creating masks generally, or of getting icon-shaped bitmaps in particular? _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
