This is at best misleading.

In this situation, you should typically not invoke the change notification methods yourself; instead, you should set up dependent keys as described in <http://developer.apple.com/mac/library/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/KeyValueObserving/Concepts/DependentKeys.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/20002179-BAJEAIEE >
