When we have a colored background on os x we have an issue with the background of a combo box.
We either set the background to the same color or transparent but have a colored field background or we set it to white or default but have the ugly border around the rounded edged.
The solution is quite simple.
- make the combo transparent
- define a label with a white background
- make the width of the combo - 5 pixels
- make the height of the combo - 2 pixels
- place the label behind the combo 1 pixel to the right and 1 pixel lower
et voila… All looks fine now…
Just my little 0.5 cent contribution…
