would be a bug. But what the control should do is up to the control author. I
would expect these to update immediately personally, but the control could

non-UI thread which is causing the update to not occur? In winforms.py
included w/ the tutorial we spin up a new thread and dispatch all console
commands onto that thread to allow both the app to run and the user to use the
console. I wouldn’t expect this to get in the way, but if you were mixing and
matching with a normal .py file that you import and the console maybe strange
things could happen.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>If a form has one of it's properties changed(i.e. Text or
ReadOnly) and that change is not immediately reflected in the visual
representation of the control onscreen, is that automatically a bug?<br>
<br>
Is it rather that some controls require that additional methods be called- for
example, layout or refresh methods? <br>
<br>
Is there a typical pattern here? <o:p></o:p></p>
