I have a subfile with some windows that pop up via a function key. The windows overlay the subfile panel nicely.

I've added an automatic refresh option for the subfile. I accomplished this via an OVRFDSPF WAITRCD(xx). The user has the ability to turn the auto-refresh feature on and off and to change the time out value. In order to do that, the DSPF must be closed, the override changed or removed and the DSPF opened. I also disable the time out when any window is displayed.

The issue I'm having is that when the auto refresh is on and a window is displayed, the background screen blanks out. Is it possible to retain the original screen background, even though the DSPF has been closed and opened?

There is a dummy format with ASSUME KEEP and all window formats have OVERLAY specified. Compiled with RSTDSP(*YES).

TIA.
