I've just learned how to directly access custom views and am not trying to set up an application with a drawer that has a custom view in it (along with a few other items). I can get the drawer to work properly but am having no luck with getting the custom view within the drawer to redraw except by closing and reopening it. I throw setNeedsDisplay: YES at it from everywhere I can think of and it just won't redraw.
You're drawing from within the drawRect: method in your custom view subclass, correct?
The larger problem is I can create and set up the drawer in IB and set up bindings with text fields but I've no idea how to go about accessing the various items in the drawer. I can't figure out how or even if I need to wire up the connections like with normal windows. I create IBOulets and actions and when control dragging they don't show up.
What are you trying to connect to? NSDrawer isn't going to have outlets for your views and such, naturally. You should be connecting from Files Owner or whatever other controller object to the controls in the drawer's content view. (Not the drawer itself).
It's almost exactly the same as a window, except that instead of there being a prefabbed content view inside of the drawer like there always is with NSWindow, it's up to you to create the content view.
