Yeah, I appreciate there are differences, but I wouldn't have expected them to be significant. It's usually just a matter of delaying things to occur after the current message. Dave

It kind of adds up that it would make a difference here as it is in response to activating an app which causes a repaint. Good call on the idea to set a timer. -- David |
