If the window looks correct after dragging another window over it, this implies 
that the view was redrawn properly, but the window contents wasn't flushed to 
the screen completely. I won't be able to debug this without being able to 
reproduce it, and "normal" code for doing this works. Example code would be 
nice.

Which backend are you using? Is the update triggered in any special way (timer, 
DO, other threads, etc.)? What kind of backing store are you using for the 
window?

Summary:  NSTextField not updating until program is deactivated

Original Submission:  NSTextFields on my window don't update with a 
setStringValue... They show the right value if another window is selected and 
passed before the textfields in question. (this is based on cvs 7/5/2004)

Could you please provide some example code for this problem? NSTextFieldCell 
uses the same code as NSActionCell for setStringValue: which tells the control 
view to update itself. I would expect this to result in the new value being 
displayed immediatly. But than I must admit I did not fully understand your bug 
report.
