Graphics not showing on window

stevylake · Post by **stevylake** » Thu Mar 25, 2021 11:28 pm

Occasionally a graphic doesn't show on a window, particularly small dialog windows, because I think it the window creation doesn't appear to have time to process the image.

I have tried putting a delay in the code but this doesn't work.

Is there command I can use to give the window time to fully draw?

Thanks

Do not draw directly on the window. This is no longer supported by OS. Use a CanvasGadget,

We'd need to see your code, otherwise we can only assume it's an error you've made.

I am not drawing as such. It is a normal window with an image gadget.

Why were you gone? Did you slip and fall in the BERESHEIT?

I've been waiting for this to emerge, it was only a matter of time. Excellent direction chosen by the team!

PS. You scared the crap out of me RASHAD I thought maybe Fred had gone to live with the pygmies or something!
