3.5 command bar, WinEnter/Exit Events, animation

[Hal Mueller]

My app does a bit of animation (updates a clock).  I am using a Boolean variable 
safeToDraw to keep track of winEnter/Exit events.  The form works properly when menus 
and the Find dialog are up.  But when I activate the command bar I don't think a 
WinExitEvent is generated (all I see in the log is a menuCmdBarOpenEvent).  Thus my 
form incorrectly concludes that it's safe to draw, and writes over the command bar.  
Here's a code excerpt:

        case winEnterEvent:
            safeToDraw = (eventP->data.winEnter.enterWindow == 
                                        (WinHandle) FrmGetFormPtr(TimeSynchForm));
            break;

        case winExitEvent:
            if (safeToDraw)
                safeToDraw = (eventP->data.winExit.exitWindow != 
                    (WinHandle) FrmGetFormPtr(TimeSynchForm));
            break;
                
What event is generated when the command bar goes away?  Is there supposed to be a 
menuCmdBarCloseEvent?  If the command bar does not send winEnter/Exit, then a lot of 
existing animation code that was written per the old rules will break.

Tested under POSER 3.0a3, EZ debug ROM build 20, MacOS 8.6.
