nsview

I have an interface that has an NSTextField, NSButton, and an NSView. When I type something in the textfield and press the button, I want the text to be drawn in the NSView. So far I have everything connected and working, except for the view.

How can I connect the text and the view so that every time I press the button, the text is drawn to the view?
