Richard--

There are a number of cases where InDesign will fail to update the screen in response to script events--some of them seem to have to do with timing, and I think this is one of those. There's not much you can do about it, apart from adding a command to redraw the screen at the end of the script.

I usually do this by getting the zoom of the active window, setting the zoom to something else, and then resetting the zoom to the original percentage.

Thanks,

Ole
