Hey Graham, thanks for the reply. Would you mind glancing at some code quickly? I've been banging my head against the wall on this one.
Here's my view that builds out a search looking control (extends NSView). http://pastebin.com/m5fd70532 and here's the code that builds the scale 9 background http://pastebin.com/m31770882 Here's what the search control looks like (notice the black border and the cursor are solid black). The cursor doesn't blink. http://imgur.com/V4yti.png I've been messing around with my code, trying to figure out where the problem is being introduced, and it seems it's with NSDrawNinePartImage (see line 166) - as soon as I comment out that one line of code, the textfield behaves as expected. But obviously the background isn't drawn. It seems like the NSDrawNinePart image is halting a thread that draws the the NSTextField? When I mouse over and out of the text field really quickly (triggering the drawRect method) the NSTextField then draws correctly because it's being called multiple times, causing the cursor to blink etc. Argh.
