Thanks everyone. But... Let me put my question another way:
on mouseUp
# lock screen -- aka "lock #1"
wait 1 second
show img 1
# unlock screen -- also part of lock #1
put the milliseconds into tStart
wait 5 milliseconds
# lock screen -- aka "lock #2"
hide img 1
#unlock screen -- also part of lock #2
put the milliseconds - tStart & cr after fld 1
set the vScroll of fld 1 to the formattedHeight of fld 1
put (the number of lines in fld 1) into fld 2
end mouseUp
I ran the above script x times and got these results on my Apple 20"
cinema display & intel mini:
- 50x with no locks/unlocks = 24% of times I saw the img
- 50x with lock #1 = 20% of times I saw the img
- 50x with lock #1 & #2 = 36% of times I saw the img
Ideally I would see the image 100% of the time - that's my goal. I'll
experiment with the other methods of displaying the image and see if I
can improve my results.
I wonder if it would make a difference to change the wait command to
"wait...with messages". I believe the "with messages" option frees up
cycles to the OS, which helps it refresh.
