Because your drawing code is broken. 

NSRectFill( self.frame ) fills starting at the *frame* offset which is 100, so 
you don't draw the left 100 px. You always want to draw relative to 0,0 in a 
drawRect: call. Or you could just have set the background colour. 

changing it to NSRectFill( dirtyRect ) will do what you want. 

There's a menu option, Debug->View Debugging->Show Frame Rects which might have 
helped you here.
