Hi,
Yes, I'm back with another "trail" issue
 I will begin the topic description with REMARK: ... so that you guys from support don't get that annoyed with my issues. I don't know if this happens because of my PC or something else. If there are users who saw something simular, I would like you to reply on this, please ???. The support team must think I'm nuts (I had a simular issue with resizing the splitter of the grid) , if no one saw this ever...
Note the horizontal dark lines, this happens when dragging the helpsection splitter.
 Thanks

Traditional question - do you see it with our VB\PropertyGrid sample ? :)
Seriously, how you do this? ------------- Oleg, Support Team CODEJOCK SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS |

Hi,
I don't see this with your sample. But I can reproduce it with my sample
 I'm glad it can be reproduced at all, I know what's causing it but I want you to look at it also. I think it will be the same on your machine So here it is:
https://forum.codejock.com/uploads/20080801_042928_TestIssues.zip - uploads/20080801_042928_TestIssues.zip
It's a sample for testing issues of RC and added a PropertyGrid control to it (as in the original form I'm working on) I thought it had something to do with the RC updating but it wasn't that.
Thanks in advance for looking at it. ------------- Product: Xtreme SuitePro (ActiveX) version 15.0.2 Platform: Windows XP (32bit) - SP 2 Language: Visual Basic 6.0 Zero replies is not an option.... |

Strange, I decided to try it again and now I do see the redraw problem exhibited...I can't figure out what I did differently this time!

Okay, so the problem seems to happen during the Timer event when the Value properties of the 2 PropertyGridItems are changed. It seems that the control is not refreshing properly when "interrupted" by the Value property change. I've thought of a workaround that seems to work in my limited testing...basically, only change the Value property if the left mouse button isn't down. Ugly, but could help until the problem is fixed. In the General section:
Then replace wrap your Value changing code with this:

Hi Jason,
Thanks for confirming this is a bug. I also saw it happen with the timer event but I wanted to be sure that a support member would see it. Now it's official
Oleg? Can you try again? Try the resize the help section (slowly) and you will see it.
Thanks
