Double Buffer


Recommended Posts

Is there any way to double buffer this?

Func drawpix($dc,$x,$y,$color)
$dll = DllOpen("user32.dll")
$dc= DllCall ("user32.dll", "int", "GetDC", "hwnd", "")
DllCall ("gdi32.dll", "long", "SetPixel", "long", $dc[0], "long", $x, "long", $y, "long", $color)
DllCall ("user32.dll", "int", "ReleaseDC", "hwnd", 0,  "int", $dc[0])

What are you talking about?

Common sense plays a role in the basics of understanding AutoIt... If you're lacking in that, do us all a favor, and step away from the computer.

Sorry I should explain more. The script above sets a cerain pixel a certain color.

Double buffering helps reduce flicker

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_buffering

Double buffering the change of a single pixel is not going to do anything more than waste some time. Is the problem that you are changing a lot of pixels and you get some flickering? For double buffering you need to change the pixels in a memory DC, then when all the pixels have been drawn copy the memory DC to the Gui DC. Or, stop Windows updating the gui, change all the pixels then allow the window to be redrawn.

SendMessage( $Gui, $WM_SETREDRAW,0,0);stop redrawing

;change the pixels

SendMessage( $Gui, $WM_SETREDRAW,1,0);allow redrawing
DllCall("user32.dll", "int", "InvalidateRect", "hwnd", $GUI "int", 0, "int", 1);force a redraw

If the pixels are changed on a control in the gui then instead of $gui you can use the handle for the control.
