I've tried everything I can think of but I cannot force a redraw at exactly the
instant I want to. I need an occluding object to damage the window before I
can force a redraw.
What I mean to say is that I have to wave my mouse in front of the window in
order to force the window to redraw. The refresh rate is much much lower that
I would expect but indeed the window does refresh.
I labored to create a simple example to compile but I'm on something of a time
budget and could not generate one.
If anyone knows how to simulate damaging the window space or in some other
fashion forcing a window to redraw that would help me out a lot.
