-Causes an event to be generated to repaint the
-window.
+Causes this window, and all of its children recursively (except under wxGTK1
+where this is not implemented), to be repainted. Note that repainting doesn't
+happen immediately but only during the next event loop iteration, if you need
+to update the window immediately you should use \helpref{Update}{wxwindowupdate}
+instead.
\wxheading{Parameters}
\func{virtual void}{Update}{\void}
-Calling this method immediately repaints the invalidated area of the window
-while this would usually only happen when the flow of control returns to the
-event loop. Notice that this function doesn't refresh the window and does
-nothing if the window hadn't been already repainted. Use
-\helpref{Refresh}{wxwindowrefresh} first if you want to immediately redraw the
-window unconditionally.
