Hi Glenn,
I've just tried this, and I have no problem - although I am using a later
version of Win32-GUI.
Cheers,
jez.

Subject: [perl-win32-gui-users] -noflicker problem
A couple of months ago, after a new release, I found that all the textfields
in my application were coming up highlighted. I didn't mention it at the time,
as I guessed the new release had just exposed a bug in my code, but after a bit
more digging, I think it may be a problem with the -noflicker option. The
following code provokes the problem on my system (Active Perl 5.8.3 build 809
with Win32-GUI 0.0.671 PPM from SourceForge):
use Win32::GUI;
my $menu = Win32::GUI::MakeMenu('File' => 'mnFile');
my $mw = new Win32::GUI::Window(
-name => "mw",
-title => "Test",
-pos => [100, 100],
-size => [200, 100],
-menu => $menu,
-noflicker => 1,
);
$mw->AddTextfield(
-name => "txDir",
-left => 5,
-top => 10,
-size => [180, 24],
-text => "Textfield",
);
$mw->Show;
Win32::GUI::Dialog();
Can anybody confirm this? I'm surprised nobody else has seen it. maybe they
have?? The problem seems to be related to the interaction of -noflicker and the
menu; if either option is commented out, the problem goes away. Any comments?
Thanks,
Glenn Munroe
