[OpenLayers-Dev] VML Layer does not redraw

[Mark Williams]

I recently noticed a similar problem - with code that (Im almost
certain) used to work.

Its possible its been broken since 2.7, but I think its more recent.
Perhaps it was a change to IE7?

I found that switching the base layer (in the layer switcher) caused the
vector layer contents to magically appear.

Eventually, I figured out that moving the redraw into a setTimeout fixes
the issue (but I dont know why):

layer.destroyFeatures();
layer.addFeatures(OpenLayers.Format.GeoJSON.prototype.read(req.responseText));
setTimeout(function() { layer.redraw() }, 0);
