Again, any suggestions are appreciated.

Besides doing your own offscreen buffering you should also be aware of these issues:

- Never use Refresh, instead just draw your offscreen picture to the canvas when it needs to be changed, and also in the Paint event

- Becareful of overlapping controls since they may cause multiple unintentional updates

- If controls are intended to overlap, make sure the Parenting relationships are set up properly so that RB will update the controls in the proper order and at the right times.

- As others have suggested, set the Canvas.EraseBackground property to false

I find that I can do flicker free updating of stuff I draw into a canvas on Windows, however there seems to be a lot of unavoidable control flicker when resizing windows.

Hope this helps,
