>> The problem is that with Qt 2 and beyond, half of the widgets are double buffered and half of them are not. I still see a lot of flicker in things like menus, but little in terms of things like text edits.

Yeah, I've noticed it when resizing windows with scrollbars in it.. usually gives some very bad looking white flashes (most themes don't set the background color to a sane value I guess?)


>> I think consistancy is good approach here. Also, remember that flicker is also an accessability issue, since a lot of people (est. 12.5% of the population) get headaches from seeing flicker on CRT screens. Using a LCD will help, but not everyone can afford one yet.

I'm still getting headaches when seeing flicker on my LCD..
