Flashy task panel

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   We have a docking pane with a task panel in it. We add dialogs to the groups in the task panel. These are just plain dialogs. They are not any CodeJock objects.

It all works fine except that when the user scrolls the task panel, we get a steady stream of paint messages for everything on our dialogs. This results in a lot of flashing in the UI. When I examine the call stack during the painting operations, I simply see we are reacting to WM_PAINT messages.

Is there something I should be doing to get "smooth" scrolling?
