- (void)drawRect:(NSRect)rect {
   // Drawing code here.
   NSArray *_colorArray = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:
[NSColor colorWithDeviceRed:0.9843 green: 0.9843 blue:0.9843 alpha:1.0], [NSColor colorWithDeviceRed:0.9608 green: 0.9608 blue:0.9608 alpha:1.0], [NSColor colorWithDeviceRed:0.8824 green: 0.8824 blue:0.8824 alpha:1.0],
                           nil];

NSGradient *_gradient = [[NSGradient alloc] initWithColors:_colorArray];
   [_gradient drawInRect:rect angle:90];
   [_gradient release];
}

No one else pointed it out, and it is good practice to understand what is wrong with your code.

'rect' in drawRect: is the dirty rect, which may or may the entire bounds. For a gradient, you can't refill just the dirty rect. Therefore, you must use self.bounds. Brandon's example shows this.
