No; NSTextField inherits that method from NSControl.
(It _contains_ an NSTextFieldCell, which inherits a method of the same name 
from NSCell. I know, controls vs. cells is confusing…)

Only thing I can guess is that you passed in a mutable attributed string and 
later changed its contents. If the control didn’t internally create and store a 
copy of the original string, this will change the string it contains behind its 
back.
