In addition, Jens found out how we could easily get rid of the black background fill appearing on resize on Windows Vista, and it really makes things look much better!


The same thing affects upp now. It would be great if we also could get rid of those black areas

Could you describe how to reproduce these black areas. I never noticed any Vista specific black areas.

Sure. Just start resizeing a window to the left or to the top Normaly you do it in the right or bottom direction and in this case everything is fine otherwise windows first move the widnow content then repaints it. In Aero mode vista paints those new window regions (created in step 1 - after window size change and moving the window's content) in black. In 2000/XP/Vista Basic it was also easily to observe (however those regions were not black). As upp draws everyhing itself this funny (ugly) "shake effect*" was fixed but MS broke something in Aero mode and probably we have to set some magical window flag to avoid moving window content. At least I think so.

* I call it shake because if for example ok button is aligned to the right side and you start resizeing the window from the left side the ok button is moved to the left first and then repainted at correct position.
