NAME
       XmUpdateDisplay — A function that processes all pending exposure events
       immediately

SYNOPSIS
       void XmUpdateDisplay (widget)
	       Widget  widget;
       (void)

DESCRIPTION
       XmUpdateDisplay provides the application with a mechanism  for  forcing
       all pending exposure events to be removed from the input queue and pro‐
       cessed immediately.  When a user selects a button within a  menu	 pane,
       the  menu  panes	 are unposted and then any activation callbacks regis‐
       tered by the application are invoked. If one of the callbacks  performs
       a time-consuming action, the portion of the application window that was
       covered by the menu panes will not have been redrawn;  normal  exposure
       processing does not occur until all of the callbacks have been invoked.
       If the application writer suspects that a callback  will	 take  a  long
       time,  then  the	 callback  may choose to invoke XmUpdateDisplay before
       starting its time-consuming operation.  This function  is  also	useful
       any  time  a transient window, such as a dialog box, is unposted; call‐
       backs are invoked before normal exposure processing can occur.

       widget	 Specifies any widget or gadget.
