Setting title for NSView

Question

I have a NSStatusItem in my Cocoa projeсt, targeted on SDK 10.9. I also use NSStatusItem::setView here to implement semi-custom tray icon. Obviously, setTitle won't work here, because of custom view applied, that's why a question was born. How can I draw a title string for custom NSView inside an instance of NSStatusItem?

Answer 1

self.button.title = @"MyTitle";

Or… override drawRect in your custom NSView subclass and draw what ever you want to draw.
