I should make sure that I'm not making an assumption here, but is
SequeraStepWindow a subclass of NSWindow?
It's been a while since I've worked with NSWindow, but the reason that it works
once is because the awakeFromNib likely sends setNeedsDisplay to all it's
associated views once it's loaded. From what I gathered you have custom
NSViews in an NSWindow, and you would like to send a message to that view from
your application controller to the NSWindow so that it would then redisplay
changes in the views?
So from your class method (not sure why you've done that), you sent a message
to your SequeraStepWindow, and that method sets a flag, then calls [self
DrawNotes]. What is inside DrawNotes? Inside that there has to be a [myView
setNeedsDisplay: YES];
