Status bar: how to detect touch events?

Question

I've successfully added a NSStatusItem to the menu bar, showing an regular NSMenu.

Is it possible to capture a hover event on this and in that case, display a different menu?

You need to create a new custom view, override method [NSView mouseEntered:] with [NSView addTrackingRect:...] and then set to the status item [NSStatusItem setView:]
