I'm thinking of creating a cross platform app, but I want it to look as natively as possible on OS X, is PyObjC a good choice? How easy is it? In contrast, how good is QT when it comes to looking native?

I'm not quite sure if my answer is in your request. But let me say one thing - take a look at Route Buddy which is developed in Qt for OSX and it is a good example that ii is sometimes hard to distinguish if it's a native Cocoa application or not. Another - but bad - example is SlickEdit , which has IMO a quite ugly GUI.

  • Route Buddy looks awesome, any idea how they made the titlebar blend with the rest of the menu? I havent seen anything that made that possible yet. – FLX Dec 15 '11 at 23:03
  • Simple thoughts - they create an [unified toolbar](http://developer.qt.nokia.com/doc/qt-4.8/qmainwindow.html#id-cd0a6e08-63f9-468f-a780-694b78076daa) and sets the active icon blend with Qt Stylesheets, which is a kind of CSS (btw, a killer feature). – dsci Dec 16 '11 at 08:35
