Tim Edwards a816da60f9 Updated the HTML command reference files to refer to magic version 8.3,
since all of the title images still had 8.2, and the title text still
said 7.3 or 7.4, having not been updated for a long time.

<HR>
Refresh the 3D display
<HR>
<H3>Usage:</H3>
<BLOCKQUOTE>
<B>refresh</B>
</BLOCKQUOTE>
<H3>Summary:</H3>
<BLOCKQUOTE>
The <B>refresh</B> command clears and redraws the 3D window
display. The 3D display does not maintain areas requiring
updates like the layout window (this is very difficult to
do in 3 dimensions), so updating the view to reflect changes
made to the layout often requires a manual refresh.
However, all commands that change any aspect of the 3D
display will also cause a refresh.
</BLOCKQUOTE>
<H3>Implementation Notes:</H3>
<BLOCKQUOTE>
<B>refresh</B> is implemented as a built-in <B>wind3d</B>
window command in <B>magic</B>. It can only be invoked from
a window created with the <B>specialopen wind3d</B> command,
or the <B>render</B> procedure. Note that the <B>wind3d</B>
window is only available when magic is compiled with the OpenGL
graphics option and invoked with <B>magic -d OGL</B>. <P>
Note that macros of the <B>wind3d</B> window are hard-coded,
and cannot be changed with the <B>macro</B>, <B>gmacro</B>, or
<B>imacro</B> commands. There is no "<TT>:</TT>" macro for
entering commands; to enter commands from the command-line,
use the <A HREF=../tk_path_name.html> <I>tk_path_name</I></A>
command. The default Tk path name of the <B>wind3d</B> window
is "<TT>.magic3d</TT>".
