Summary:

When used as subview of a view that has layer-backing turned on then making it wider causes the background color to not fill the entire area of the control.

I am seeing this bug in a scenario where I have a text field in an inspector panel that I can change in width via an NSSplitView. I attached a screen shot of the bug how it appears on an empty text field without the workaround mentioned below.

Steps to Reproduce:

- have an NSView that has layer-backing turned on
- add an NSTextField as a subview to that
- have layout constraints that fix the left and right margin between the text field and the superview
- enlarge the NSView

Expected Results:

- the background color of the control should be filled consistently
- the amount of text in the textfield seems to play a role. If it is empty then the unfilled background stays. If not then it might get filled once the user release the mouse button

Actual Results:

- only the part of the control that was visible before stays filled, the new space appearing on the right side does not have background filling

Regression:

- only occurs in connection with layers.

Notes:

As workaround I subclassed NSTextField and overwrite drawRect like this:

- (void)drawRect:(NSRect)dirtyRect
{
	[super drawRect:self.bounds];
}

This fixes the problem because the dirtyRect is too small.
