I'm not quite sure what it is you are trying to do. If you stop the screen from updating, you won't see your graphic move. It will appear to leap from the start position to the end. Do you want to see it follow a path, but not see anything else happen? If so, perhaps you should consider a sub-stack so there is nothing but your graphic in the window.
If you want to end up with a line across the window, then I would recommend using a polygon graphic and setting it's points. This is quick to do in a script and the screen update only has to happen once, when you set the points of the graphic to the set of points that you have just calculated using your equation.
If you want an example, let me know.
Cheers,
Sarah

Thanks to Gary Rathbone and Jim Hurley for their suggestions, but the Lockscreen property does not work, and although Jim's script is very clever, it results in a very choppy motion compared to repeatedly setting the loc of an object via an equation of motion (such as a projectile.) Any other ideas?
Thanks, Roger
I would like to trace a line by moving a small brightly colored graphic
(say via an equation of motion). This would require that I prevent the
screen from updating while the graphic is in motion. I've done this in
other APDs but I can't seem to find the way to do it in RR. Any ideas?
Thanks and Cheers, Roger
