Desktop FLASHING?!
-
Hi all, I have a MDI MFC Application that causes OTHER applications that happen to be running at the same time to FLICKER uncontrollably whenever my application updates/refreshs itself. I understand how EraseBackground and PreCreateWindow can be used to eliminate flicker within the same application, but how I do I prevent my application from causing other apps to flicker? Many thanks in advance!

You're not create a CWindowDC with NULL, are you ? Christian I have come to clean zee pooollll. - Michael Martin Dec 30, 2001 Picture the daffodil.

Hi, Thanks for replying, however I am not sure what CWindowDC is/has to do with MFC? Could you elaborate?
CWindowDC w; w.CreateCompatibleDC(NULL); will give you access to a DC for the entire screen. I thought maybe you were causing the whole screen to be refreshed somehow.

if you are 'doing' graphics and your display is set to 8-bit color (aka 256 color mode) then you are probably seeing palette flashing. You need to do a little research about palette management.

My screen is set to "million colors". In addition, my own application is NOT flickering/flashing - _other_ applications that are also on the desktop are... ?
