force-objects-redraw pane

pane⇩

The function force-objects-redraw forces redrawing of the objects in the drawing-object slot of pane.

pane should be either an objects-displayer or a pinboard-objects-displayer. When force-objects-redraw is called on any other object it silently does nothing.

force-objects-redraw uses apply-in-pane-process, so can be used on any process.

In the case of objects-displayer, force-objects-redraw forces redrawing of the drawing-object of the objects-displayer and the drawing-objects and any pinboard-objects-displayer objects in the description of the objects-displayer, but does not force redraw of other pinboard-objects. force-objects-redraw is needed when you set the sub-object slot in any of the drawing-objects inside a hierarchy, because setting does not cause automatic redrawing.
