I am developing an app, that has a custom view in the menu bar. The menu bar extra is a custom NSView that is redrawn every second. When I open the NSMenu of the view, the view freezes and no longer redraws itself. I am using 

self.graph.needsDisplay = true

to trigger a redraw.

Is it possible to refresh a NSView in the menu bar when the NSMenu is opened?

The solution is to add the timer to the RunLoop:

RunLoop.main.add(timer, forMode: .commonModes)
