I know they are unnecessary because my app responds with multiple
screen refreshes (paints) from a single user action. And for me those
paints can be expensive.
Did you write a widget that calls update()? I'm not sure I understand your
concern. update() should only be called when a redraw is needed. This is
primarily done to reflect new data, or occasionally because something obscured
the widget, which was not stored on a double buffer, and it needs to be
redrawn. See also invalidate().
What single user action is happening?
Single user action might be one mouse click
in my custom widget.
I am just wasting your time.
My 10 year old code is crap and needs to be rewritten.
I was just looking for an incremental understanding of
what I did wrong in hopes of a quick incremental fix in
lieu of that complete rewrite.
