John,

Here's a suggestion for this. Check out the sample code by Bradley Scott
called "SmartResizeDemo" at
http://homepage.mac.com/monkiineko/SmartResizeWindow.html. You might extract
a useful bit of code from it.

While I agree with John Randolph about optimizing your drawing, you can use
setScrollsDynamically: to turn on and off dynamic scrolling of a
NSScrollView.

You could consider using StillDown() in your action method to determine the
state of the mouse button and branch one of two ways. If the button is down,
give the text feedback. If it's up (which you should get on the last call to
the action from your slider), you can draw the plot.
