Package: blender
Version: 2.58-svn37702-1+b1
Severity: normal


Hi,

In windowed mode, there's no issue, but when I switch to fullscreen
mode, I suspect something goes wrong with double buffering, because
Blender flickers between the previous window configuration
(windows/fullscreen, but also between the previous layout and another
layout selected with Ctrl+Left/Right, and even when I simply add a
control panel such as the (t)ransform menu).

A double Alt+Tab (switch to another window and back to Blender) fixes
the issues temporarily; that is, the flicker comes back as soon as I
switch back and forth to windowed mode, or when I change the Blender
layour with Ctrl+Left/Right, etc..

This basically prevents from working in full-screen mode, which is
crucial since Blender has so many things to display on the screen :)

Good to know.
I have to admit that I never came into this issue and was waiting for
someone else to write some more info about it.
So, since the problem seems to be solved, I'm closing this bug report.

Thanks for your efforts in helping.

Cheers.
