Not exactly zero.  It will grab the focus in Windows for each frame.  This 
makes working on the machine challenging during animations with hundreds or

I am not a C programmer, so I am not able to contribute in that manner, 
but I have tried to be supportive in other ways that I am capable of. 
Please don't take this as a complaint.  It is only a request for
