Hello,
Can anyone shed any light on this, please?
I'm puzzled why the paint method is invoked 3 times when a frame is
first displayed. For small applications this isn't a problem, but if
the paint method is complicated it results in annoying flickering.
To see a demo compile the following StringArt.java and
ApplicationFrame.java from Jonathan Knudsen's book. On startup I get
"Paint" printed 3 times. In fact, if you run the ShowOff class from
the same book the image is redrawn three times. In both cases simply
exposing the window results in a single invocation of paint().
Any pointers, cures or expressions of sympathy gratefully received.
Many thanks,
Richard Everson.
