I am using IV3.0B. I have a ShadowFrame with a message inside it. I want to be able to change the message, but when I do, the frame doesn't reflect the change until I call ToolNameFrame->Change(ToolMessage); The problem: when I do this the entire screen is redrawn (which is slow and annoying). How can I keep the whole screen from being redrawn when I update the contents of a frame? Thanks! Eben Haber haber@micah.cs.wisc.edu

To redraw, just call ToolMessage->Draw() explicitly.
