I want to display progress information (more than a progress bar) during a compute-bound process. So I tried labels and changed their captions ... but Delphi never displays the changes. So I tried calling form.Paint ... but this doesn't work either; it acts like a no-op. Nor does setting form.visible false and then true. The *only* thing I have bumped into that semi-works is to use an edit box and setting the focus to it ... but that looks dreadful. Even if I remove the focus right away, Delphi leaves the blue highlight on the text. So ... HOW do I convince Delphi to please refresh my screen display completely?
