Question

I use standard NSButton with custom background. With black title color there is white shadow - how can I remove it?

Solution

Solved!

NSAttributedString documentation says that default value of NSShadowAttributeName is nil, but in this case the button title is drawn with white shadow. Transparent shadow solved problem:

NSShadow *shadow = [[NSShadow alloc] init];
[shadow setShadowColor:[NSColor colorWithDeviceWhite:1.0 alpha:0.0]];

NSDictionary *attrsDictionary = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:
                                 shadow, NSShadowAttributeName, nil];

NSAttributedString *attrString = [[NSAttributedString alloc] initWithString:_customTitle attributes:attrsDictionary];

[mybutton setAttributedTitle:attrString];
