The lockscreen command should really be called "lockWindow". It's a holdover from HyperCard where the stack did take up the whole screen (at first, anyway) so the two were essentially the same thing. Going to another stack will always force a redraw. You can lock the screen again after going there but you'll see the stack change.

One trick that might work is to go to the other stacks invisibly. That will leave the first stack on screen and visually nothing will appear to change. Use "go invisible stack <stackname>". You shouldn't need to use lockscreen if you do that.
