No, I've also done things like that, many times. Really, I've tried many things and tests over time, I'm not going to list every little detail I tests because it would be too long. I just say this to say that it really does draw something, i.e. not even an empty (non-nil) image.

> Sure, the image might "be there", but "Overflow" might not be its name. (For example, the file name probably has an extension, which you have not given; also, capitalization matters.) If you like, I'll send you a project where the code is almost *exactly* what you posted, but the image *does* appear (because I made the popup button big enough, and because I say the image's name correctly). m.

The fact that I use the same code just with a NSPopUpButton subclass also means that it is the exact same image, with the exact same spelling. And really, I find it offensive that you think I would not double-check such a thing like spelling of the image name. So you're wrong here.
