true - show

Seems ok, but if off_on is declared Boolean we get a warning: 1096:
Illogical comparison with null. Variables of type Boolean cannot be

Shucks ... :(~
So I now have

From looking at the API docs, my guess is that flush() is a blocking
operation that returns only when it's complete. If for some reason the
flush fails, it'll throw an I/O error. You could verify this by
writing a large amount of data to the buffer, calling flush() and then
pulling the plug on

Is the size of the UIComponent really changing? Is
invalidateDisplayList() getting called on the Canvas internally? If
not, try calling it explicitly and your Canvas should show scrollbars.
