NSWindow with rounded corners

What I was able to do is provide a custom subclass of my NSWindow:

@implementation ELGRoundWindow

- (id)initWithContentRect:(NSRect)contentRect styleMask:(NSUInteger)aStyle backing:(NSBackingStoreType)bufferingType defer:(BOOL)flag
{
    self = [super initWithContentRect:contentRect styleMask:NSBorderlessWindowMask backing:bufferingType defer:flag];

    if ( self )
    {
        [self setStyleMask:NSBorderlessWindowMask];
        [self setOpaque:NO];
        [self setBackgroundColor:[NSColor clearColor]];
    }

    return self;
}


- (void) setContentView:(NSView *)aView
{
    aView.wantsLayer            = YES;
    aView.layer.frame           = aView.frame;
    aView.layer.cornerRadius    = 20.0;
    aView.layer.masksToBounds   = YES;


    [super setContentView:aView];

}

@end

and then in IB, I changed the class of my content view to ELGRoundView:

@implementation ELGRoundView

- (void)drawRect:(NSRect)dirtyRect
{
    [[NSColor colorWithCalibratedRed:0.0 green:0.5 blue:1 alpha:1] set];
    NSRectFill(dirtyRect);
}

@end

 In addition if you want the window to be movable and resizable change the init of the NSWindow as follows,
- (id)initWithContentRect:(NSRect)contentRect
                 styleMask:(NSUInteger)aStyle
                   backing:(NSBackingStoreType)bufferingType
                     defer:(BOOL)flag
{
    self = [super initWithContentRect:contentRect
                            styleMask:aStyle
                              backing:bufferingType
                                defer:flag];
    if (self) {            
        [self setOpaque:NO];
        [self setBackgroundColor:[NSColor clearColor]];
        [self setMovableByWindowBackground:YES];
        [self setStyleMask:NSResizableWindowMask];
    }
    return self;
}
