Smooth window resizing

[S3cret]

Hello all =)

I've got a question. I know WinMove is the normal way to resize windows. But I really don't like it, cause the controls on my GUI flicker everytime I use it. Somehow it's really annoying, cause i've got like 50-70 controls so the flickering is a real eyecatcher.

So my question is pretty simple, how can I avoid the flickering of controls?

And another little thing. In some applications there is a smoother resizing than WinMove does, even if I choose Speed 100 (the resizing is just slowlier). Is there a way to use this "smooth" resizing in AutoIt?

Hope to get useful answers =)

Welcome S3cret

For some applications in XP you can add the extended style $WS_EX_COMPOSITED to give a smoother redraw.

Thank you for your suggestion.

Is it only working on XP? I tried it on my Win7 machine and it didn't make any difference. I also noticed that the speed (paramter in WinMove) is not the resizing speed but the speed to move the window to the coords.
