RHStatusItemView

An NSStatusItem hosted view that supports handling both left and right click actions, menus and showing an image / alternateImage pair.

Usage Example

#import "RHStatusItemView.h"

@property (retain) IBOutlet NSMenu *statusMenu; //Created in MainMenu.nib 

//create the status item
NSStatusItem *statusItem = [[NSStatusBar systemStatusBar] statusItemWithLength:24];
[statusItem setHighlightMode:YES];

//create our custom view to be hosted inside the status item
RHStatusItemView *statusView = [[[RHStatusItemView alloc] initWithStatusBarItem:statusItem] autorelease];

[statusItem setView:statusView];

[statusView setToolTip:@"AppName"];        
[statusView setMenu:statusMenu];

[statusView setImage:[NSImage imageNamed:@"MenuIcon"]];
[statusView setAlternateImage:[NSImage imageNamed:@"MenuIconSelected"]];
