Yeah, I've the same problem - I ended up explicity setting the colour of the
window (to 16) - not sure what effect this has on windows pre XP.
Hope that helps,
Cheers,

Subject: [perl-win32-gui-users] WinXP draw/redraw issues with Win32::GUI
Date: Tue, 07 Jan 2003 13:43:50 -0500
I'm experiencing draw/redraw issues with an application I wrote using
Win32::GUI. I initially wrote the application on Windows 2000, and
the application appears correctly as expected. When I migrated to
Windows XP, all of the background turned white from grey, except the
label controls, which were still white. Essentially, the app looked
ugly. Has anyone else experienced this and if so, is there a
workaround?
I also have several reports from people where the application doesn't
draw any of the controls. It's just a white screen. I can provide
screenshots if necessary to illustrate this condition. Keep in mind
that the controls are there, and I can blindly click on them, and type
in them, but the controls are not displayed. I've even tried minimize
and restore to force a refresh, but it's no help.
Is anyone aware of changes Microsoft might have made in the GUI API
that could cause this? Is anyone else having issues with their apps
on WinXP? Any help appreciated.
Thanks,
Joe.
