+<p>This method is called internally by Mithril&#39;s auto-redrawing system and is only documented for completeness; usually you should avoid calling it manually unless you explicitly want a multi-pass redraw cycle. One case where <code>m.redraw</code> may be useful is to force a manual redraw after background requests (see the <code>background</code> option in <a href="mithril.request.html"><code>m.request</code></a>.</p>
 <p>A multi-pass redraw cycle is usually only useful if you need non-trivial UI metrics measurements. A multi-pass cycle may span multiple browser repaints and therefore could cause flash of unbehaviored content (FOUC) and performance degradation.</p>
 <p>By default, if you&#39;re using either <a href="mithril.route.html"><code>m.route</code></a> or <a href="mithril.module.html"><code>m.module</code></a>, <code>m.redraw()</code> is called automatically by Mithril&#39;s auto-redrawing system once the controller finishes executing.</p>
 <p><code>m.redraw</code> is also called automatically on event handlers defined in virtual elements.</p>
