Description
Refreshes the data in the map view.
Syntax
object.Refresh ( [__MIDL__IMap0014]) |
|
Parameters
- __MIDL__IMap0014
- Optional. A Boolean that specifies whether to reload the drawing cache from the data files.
Remarks
__MIDL__IMap0014 is a boolean specifying whether to reload the drawing cache from the data files. If __MIDL__IMap0014 is not passed or is specified as False then the map view is redrawn using the cached data. If __MIDL__IMap0014 is specified as True, then the drawing cache is reloaded from the data files (slower redraw). [Optional].
This method is very similar to the Redraw method. The difference is that the Redraw method causes the screen to be updated immediately, while the Refresh method posts an invalidate message to the Windows queue and the screen will update at the earliest convenience (that is, not necessarily immediately after calling the method).
Example
Gets an ArcPad map or layer file (via Open dialog box) and adds it to the current map.
