Not necessarily. The redraw occurs after I have removed it from the regular window and before I have added it to the borderless window. So, it seems like the problem is trying to prevent the regular window from redrawing synchronously as a result of the removal of this view.

Yes.

It is not the contentView, although it contains some "content" (i.e. a video image)

This might be a solution. The are some reasons why doing that is not super easy in my codebase, which is why I didn't do that to begin with.
