[Tile-dev] slightly improved aqua combobox

[Michael K. <mi...@mu...>]

Having finally gotten my software release out and having a little time to 
breathe, I thought I'd poke a bit more at tile since I decided not to use 
it yet.  In my initial experimentation I've slightly improved upon the 
look of the combobox on Aqua.  Diffs are attached.

It looks more like the real aqua combobox in that it has a blue glassy 
button, although it's still a little off.  The native one is rounded on 
the right and square on the left, and the arrow is a little smaller.

For the former, I suspect the way they may draw it is the button is 
actually outside the bounding box of the entry but the entry overlaps it 
slightly.  Alternately, its possible that it's a special button that the 
appearance manager just doesn't give an interface for. :-/ But the reason 
I suspect it's the entry box overlapping the button rather than vise versa 
is when it has focus you can see a little bit of blue highlight between 
the button and the entry along with the highlight that surrounds the whole 
thing.

For the latter, I'm not sure what the deal is - the next size lower arrow 
drawn with the current method is smaller than the one in the native 
combobox.  Oh well.

Btw, there's a missing ) in one of the layout specs that's also pointed to 
in this diff.
