Position text within an NSTextField

Question

Cocoa noob here. I'm working with an NSTextField, and am using CALayer to style the border of it.

It looks like this:

My question is: how can I position where the input text actually starts? I'd like to be able to push it over from the left and the top a bit.

Thank you!

Answer 1

Can't you solve this by creating a NSView container? So it will look a bit like this: NSView with CALayer border and NSTextField inside.

You get the idea?
