force-redraw

Causes the frame which contains the item to recalculate the positions and sizes of its controls appropriately. This method is generally called automatically when a property of the item (e.g., stretchability) changes.

The actual resizing calculation for a call to force-redraw may be delayed if an ancestor of the item is not visible to the user.
