Message-ID: <1991Jan15.211817.29787@msuinfo.cl.msu.edu> Date: 15 Jan 91 21:18:17 GMT Sender: news@msuinfo.cl.msu.edu Distribution: na Organization: Michigan State University, East Lansing Lines: 17 In doing a sample animation (using DPSDoUserPath) the output surges. That is, the display server only updates the screen maybe every 1/3 of a second or so. When it does, it gives a burst of the motions recently sent out. This gives a "surging" look. I can't find what to do to get the Display Server to flush out things right away, as opposed to apparently "batching" them. Thanks for any help. Dick PS: I've read the "Making Your App Fly", but I don't see it in there; possibly something I didn't recognize when I saw it.
