Perhaps you just need to call XFlush(fl_get_display()) after doing your
drawing. If you are doing lots of other computation before returning control
to XForms, the X server may be behind on processing your requests. I think I
had the same problem you described -- using a browser to display the progress
of a calculation, and not seeing the new text until the calculation was done.
Calling XFlush() after writing each new line to the browser solved the
problem.
