Resizing Causes Window Contents to Flicker (139718)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows 95
- Microsoft Plus! for Windows 95
This article was previously published under Q139718 SYMPTOMS
When you are using the Show Window Contents While Dragging feature of
Microsoft Plus!, resizing a program window may cause the window's contents
to flicker.
Resizing certain program windows, such as My Computer, Control Panel, and
Windows Explorer, does not cause the flickering to occur.
CAUSE
The flickering usually occurs with programs that implement a windowed box
with capabilities for editing text or graphics (sometimes referred to as an
Edit box). The flickering is more noticeable with slower video cards.
The following are examples of programs that use Edit-box-style windows:
- System Agent
- Notepad
- WordPad
- Paint
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Plus! version
1.0 for Windows 95. We are researching this problem and will post new
information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
