I've finally found a solution!

Create a subclass of NSView, and reimplement the following methods:

-(BOOL) shouldDelayWindowOrderingForEvent:(NSEvent *)theEvent
{
    return YES;
}

-(void) mouseDown:(NSEvent *)theEvent
{
    [NSApp preventWindowOrdering];
}

and set the contentView property of the created NSWindow, and set the window style mask to NSBorderlessWindowMask , and it works.

Select the Table View in Interface Builder. There is a "Focus Ring" Attribute, change it to "None". I set all these attributes in Scroll View, Clip View, and Table View.

Hope it help.

There is method(s) you may override in your subclass with returning NO

-(BOOL)acceptsFirstResponder
-(BOOL)becomeFirstResponder
