Hi Jacque, Previously, redraws were postponed, now they are flushed. Each time when you show or hide an object, LiveCode wants to redraw the screen. Previously, these redraws were remembered and executed when the screen was unlocked. As I understand it, the screen is now simply redrawn once, when the screen unlocks. That's a big difference.
