[Solved] Suppress screen redrawing to improve performance

[jwharton]

I there a way to make it so that the document being modified by a macro or through API programming suspends doing any extra work to format and paint the contents in the open writer instance? I am running a document building program and it really is slow due to the visual stuff bogging it down. I'd like it to just blast in all the contents and then do a reformat and a repaint once every significant portion of the document is loaded.

Thanks,
Jason Wharton

lockcontrollers stops the document display refreshing - some of it anyway.
