[Q] how to tell when drawing is done?

[Sorry if this is a repeat. I sent this out a couple of days ago and didn't see it show up on the list, so I figured it disappeared into the ether. Anyways...]


Is there a way to tell when all subviews of a certain view have completed drawing themselves?

I have a NSWindowController managing a window that contains a NSTabView that contains NSTableViews as subviews. When I switch to a new tab (usually the first time), it's possible that the data source supplying the table could take a little while to get its data in order. I'd like to display a spinning NSProgressIndicator while all this is going on until the views finish drawing.

I have no problem starting up the indicator in the tab view's tabView:willSelectTabViewItem: delegate method, but I don't know where to stop it. Ideas?
