VeryGary Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 So, I seem to remember reading years ago there was a way to suspend the painting of GUI updates and resume it, so you had time to do all your changes and make them appear all at once... Searching is giving me a headache. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mbee Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 You may be recalling passing _WinAPI_RedrawWindow() with the flag $RDW_NOINTERNALPAINT. Just a guess... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VeryGary Posted June 29, 2016 Author Share Posted June 29, 2016 (edited) Actually it was _SendMessage($form, $WM_SETREDRAW, False/True, 0) followed by _WinAPI_RedrawWindow ($form, $tRect, 0, BitOR( $RDW_FRAME, $RDW_INVALIDATE, $RDW_ALLCHILDREN)) for the updated $tagRect. I got it sorted this morning. Thanks. No more flickering controls, and they paint more or less all at once.

Mbee Posted June 30, 2016 Share Posted June 30, 2016 Glad you got it solved. I learned something from you, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
