force repainting of the entire screen #72

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

Hi and thanks for this useful library !

I use a Linux terminal and when the system prints some message the screen needs 
to be refresh. I tried invalidate() method on GUIScreen class but nothing seems 
to happen on screen.

mywindow.getOwner().invalidate();

Is there a way to force total repainting of the screen ?

There isn't actually any way to do this right now... Shouldn't be too hard to 
add one though...

Pushed a change to 2.1.x-branch, so you can call:
myWindow.getOwner().getScreen().completeRefresh();

Please try it out if you have a chance.
