StatusBarText() produces flicker if update it with same text

To reduce flickering, I use functions like that to update gadgets:

Code: Select all

Procedure SetGadgetStateIf(gadget, state)

  If GetGadgetState(gadget) <> state: SetGadgetState(gadget, state): EndIf

EndProcedure

Procedure SetGadgetTextIf(gadget, text$)

  If GetGadgetText(gadget) <> text$: SetGadgetText(gadget, text$): EndIf

EndProcedure
But in StatusBar I have no access to the current text. If I update with the same text, then it flickers.
