```swift
func drawRow(_ row: Int, clipRect: NSRect)
```

## Discussion

Discussion NSCell-based table views can override this method to customize the drawing of the rows. note: For NSView-based table views, do not subclass or override this method. Instead, row drawing customization should be done by subclassing NSTableRowView.
