Bug - UI flickers when saving edited file

Luther · Post by **Luther** » 2004 May 03, 12:01

I double-click a text file to edit it. When I save the edited file, the xplorer UI (the tree and/or the active pane) flickers noticeably. I have the pane view set to "list", so there is really nothing the UI should be updating.

it must have received a "folder changed" notification and refreshed everything. It doesn't check to see whether any changes were relevant since that is time consuming in large folders

OK, so it receives a folder notification. That's still no reason to flash the pane by erasing the entire view. All you have to do is redraw all the items (without first clearing the view), and then at the end just erase from the last item to the bottom of your BrowserListView. This will eliminate the flickering, which is caused by clearing the view first.
