Refreshing CorelDRAW's screen

I've heard of people closing and reopening files (and even Draw itself) again and again, just to redraw the screen. That's downright crazy.

Here's a public service announcement to let all users know about CTRL + W. It redraws the screen, clearing away screen glitches and other anomalies. This works for all CorelDRAW versions.

For many users, CorelDRAW X4 has more refresh problems than other versions. I lamented this to the Macromonster Shelby, and he created the nifty "auto refresh" code below.

It's really helped for me, and it's also easy for anyone using CorelDRAW X4 to try it out.

Is it total wacky overkill to redraw the entire screen after moving any element, or changing a selection? Well, Yes. But it works. Either this, or manually pressing CTRL + W 100+ times per day in my case.

Maybe X4 Sp2 won't need this... :-)
