Here is one additional thing I discovered. I have an outlet to the NSTextField that contains the cell so I can write text to it. This is the only connection to my application. If I remove the outlet, the drawingRectForBounds: is called. If I add it back, it won't get called. Why should having an outlet to the control have any affect on this method getting called. Something weird is going on.
