GDI+ doublebuffering isnt stopping flicker :(
-
I have added this lines as recormended to InitializeComponent() this.SetStyle(ControlStyles.DoubleBuffer | ControlStyles.UserPaint | ControlStyles.AllPaintingInWmPaint,true); What i am doing is reading an array in memory with a reference to locations on an image. I then draw the source image to a bitmap then clone the needed area(described in the array element) to a second bitmap then draw that to a onto a panel on a form. The program is a graphical level editor for a 2D tile engine based game and it works fine except when i scroll around the level editor window the image redraw looks horrible even with the double buffering enabled. Any advice? Thanks in advance, James.

Try it this way: this.SetStyle(ControlStyles.DoubleBuffer, true); this.SetStyle(ControlStyles.UserPaint, true); this.SetStyle(ControlStyles.AllPaintingInWmPaint, true); John

Try calling the
UpdateStylesmethod afterwards to force the assigned styles to be reapplied to the control.
