I misstated some. The following is after a code check.
First of all, at the beginning and end of form .init().
Secondly, I have some display routines
where a lot happens (basically, a lot of .enable
setting). To avoid flicker, I use .lockscreen there, too.
I use .lockscreen minimally. I am not
trying to do tricks to speed up display maximally
but rather enough that it works.
My display methods are not .show() -- it
has never occurred to me to add code to .show()
-- but custom methods. They often call
.refresh() indirectly. ("indirectly" because I
usually do not directly call methods where there
is an event of the same name. I tend to call a method that does that call.)
Sincerely,
Gene Wirchenko
