Indeed. For example, if the size is increasing, you'll want to resize first, then draw. But if the size is decreasing, you'll want to draw first, then resize. Otherwise subviews will be clipped during animation and/or permanently misplaced.
I've designed a window which has 6 tabs, resizes both height and width, and several tabs have sub-tabs, and some tab views' sizes depends on the content. It took many, many hours to get it all working, and much of the knowledge and code ended up being ad hoc; not abstractable for re-use. And there still may be a bug or two that I haven't exercised yet.

Certainly worth considering!
