The real interesting thing is now for me how to lock the screen in LC Builder? I couldn't find a way to do that. Who knows?
There isn't one - although you can use 'execute script' to use LCS's lock/unlock screen.
Indeed, I should check whether LCB does currently use an implicit lock screen - it probably should as LCB handlers, when called from LCS, are meant to be 'atomic' in some sense.
This interacts with LC Script, timed widgets (clocks, animations) want their own screen updates ...
Screen updates of widgets only happen upon request from the widget - by using the 'redraw all' and 'redraw rect' commands. Any updates all fold into the update mechanism LCS uses and occur at a suitable point after returning from LCB to LCS - this is the same as calling any engine command / function.
Can you elaborate on your use-case here, just so I can check there isn't something we are missing? :)
