Arguments: drawable stream
Called whenever a drawable control needs to be
redrawn, such as when it is uncovered. drawable
is the drawable control itself. stream is the
stream on which to draw.
If the use-bitmap-stream property of the control is true, then stream will be the bitmap-stream of the control; otherwise stream will be the visible window of the control.
If use-bitmap-stream is true, then redisplay-event will be called only when the application explicitly calls update-drawable on the drawable; otherwise whatever is currently drawn on the bitmap-stream is used to refresh the visible window as needed.
The default redisplay-event method essentially just calls the on-redisplay handler of the drawable if it has one. The on-redisplay handler is the more typical place to place custom drawing code.
