I've created an NSPopUpButtonCell subclass to customize its appearance.

When one of the menu items is selected from the popup it animates the selection with the standard popup appearance on OS X 10.10.

I'd like it to animate with my custom appearance.

My Implementation

- (void)drawBezelWithFrame:(NSRect)frame inView:(NSView *)controlView {

    [[NSGraphicsContext currentContext] saveGraphicsState];

    NSBezierPath *rectanglePath = [NSBezierPath bezierPathWithRoundedRect:frame xRadius:5.0 yRadius:5.0];
    [[NSColor colorWithWhite:0.7 alpha:1.0] setFill];
    [rectanglePath fill];

    float width = frame.size.width;
    float height = frame.size.height;

    NSBezierPath *path = [NSBezierPath bezierPath];

    [path moveToPoint:CGPointMake(width - 5, height/2 - 2)];
    [path lineToPoint:CGPointMake(width - 10, height/2 - 7)];
    [path lineToPoint:CGPointMake(width - 15, height/2 - 2)];


    [path moveToPoint:CGPointMake(width - 5, height/2 + 2)];
    [path lineToPoint:CGPointMake(width - 10, height/2 + 7)];
    [path lineToPoint:CGPointMake(width - 15, height/2 + 2)];

    [path setLineWidth:2.0];

    [[NSColor darkGrayColor] setStroke];
    [path stroke];

    [NSGraphicsContext restoreGraphicsState];
}

You have to turn off bordered property on Interface Builder.

If bordered is actualy off, you have to switch it on and next off.

Better way is use - (void)drawBorderAndBackgroundWithFrame:(NSRect)cellFrame inView:(NSView *)controlView
