How to Change Color of NSWindow Title Bar in OSX

Question

After a Long search regarding the NSWindow title bar color and title color, i have found a easy drawing solution. I posting this to share my knowledge.

There is a much easier way to do this. I've read that you can change a window's appearance to "textured" in a Storyboard / .xib file, but that doesn't work completely (titlebar color is mottled). However, you can change the color in your code with only two lines:

window.titlebarAppearsTransparent = true // gives it "flat" look
window.backgroundColor = <NSColor> // set the background color
