I hate replying to myself, but this is just wierd...
Ok, so I #if 0'd out those 10 lines of code to kill the flicker (and
presumably the feature as a whole), and it turns out that we not only get
flicker-free drawing, but the feature still works (wtf :)??
I'm happily surprised. So now we get flicker-free text with a
document/section background color drawn to screen.
Now textruns get printed out with a highlight color == the document
background color, which is another bug in-and-of itself, but I'll fix that
pretty quickly.
Attached is a shot of the change background color dialog for other
platform-maintainer type folks. It was 200 LOC on Unix, and most of that was
whitespace and brackets :)
I'll be updating my dialog page with current shots of all the dialogs for
platform-maintainers to see later today. I'll send out an email when that
happens.
Pleasantly surprised at his accident,
Dom
