I have an application that I have written to an old PalmOS API to allow
it to run on old, out-of-date Palm hardware.  This question concerns
menus and does not use the dynamic menus introduced in 3.5 (that's when,
right?).

The application has text that is updated by timing out the event wait at
the top of the event loop (to cause flashing and update a clock
display).  However, the display area that has the flashing and clock
display is near the top of the display and runs into problems when the
menu is selected.

Is there an event that I can catch to turn off the flashing and clock
update when the user goes into the menu.  Are the silkscreened button
and the shortcuts the only way into the menu?  What event should I catch
to turn the flashing and clock update back on?

Thanks in advance.
