Redraw issue

I have RTF text saved in a string variable s. I then want to display it in the FTC called Display, so I do this: 

      Display.getDoc.deleteAll
      Display.setRTFText(s)
      Display.resized
I find that I have to call the resized method afterwards in order to make the RTF conform to the new size of the Display, which could be changed at any time by the user. If I don't do this, centered text, for example, does not look centered. This works very well on the Mac. On Windows builds, I see the display first show the RTF in one position, then I see the display "jump" as the text moves to a slightly different location due to the resized method.
Is there any way to suppress the redraw during these steps, or am I completely wet with how to best handle setting RTF in the FTC?
Oh, and in case you were wondering why I call the deleteAll method... I've found that if I don't use it, I get duplicate RTF in the FTC for some reason. Very weird, but solved by the deleteAll.
