platform.window:invalidate()platform.window:invalidate(0, 0, 50, 10)Good to know
The entire window can be forced to repaint with by calling the function with no arguments : platform.window:invalidate() , allowing all parameters to take their default values.
Repainting only a part of the widget (thanks to providing the necessary arguments) only currently works on-calc, not on the software.
