UpdateStatusBar

newtAppBase:UpdateStatusBar()

Recreates and redraws the status bar.

return value

Undefined; do not rely on it.

DISCUSSION

This method can be called to recreate the status bar, for example, if you have changed the button arrays. This method calls the ViewSetupChildrenScript method of the status bar, which in turn calls the UpdateStatusBar method of the view identified in the viewDefView slot, if there is a currently active viewDef.
