Thanks for the compliment. I'm not sure I would find a better way. I  
thought about this issue and decided to ignore it this morning  
because I didn't have time to do something better. Your way, passing  
in an argument to force an update, is likely the best with this  
particular design, although have a look at the example Dar suggested  
and Dennis posted. Separating the movement of the three hands into  
three separate handlers gets past this problem.
