275671 - Repeated moveBy's or moveTo's cause random screen flickering

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Core Graveyard :: Widget: Mac, defect)

Description

[w.doeringer]

Running moveBy in a setInterval loop causes wild flickering on the screen. It
seems that the test-program's window is bounced back and forth between position
(0,0) and the actual window position.

Hmm, the scirpt in the url works for me perfectly.
No flickering.
Maybe platform dependent problem?

This is an automated message, with ID "auto-resolve01".

This bug has had no comments for a long time. Statistically, we have found that
bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are
highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.

While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce

you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved.
