How do I force an update of the UI?

    How do I force an update of the UI?

    In my application,

    a list of products is initialized by doing a backgroud call (through the
    dispatcher). That list shows a picture of the product (specified as an
    URL). I apply some filtering to the list (setting a Status variable to
    'InView' 'Hidden' etc.).

    The problem is that sometimes the images do not show up. I have to click
    twice (i..e refresh the list twice with the same parameters to get the
    images to properly show up).

    How can I force the UI to recompute the layout? UpdateLayout doesn't
    seem to work 100%.



    Thanks

    Have you tried the InvalidateMeasure(), InvalidateArrange() and the
    InvalidateVisual() functions...

    Those functions force either some part or the complete re-layout of the
    visual... Maybe this could help...
