Subject: Re: XWin can't hold OpenGL picture, has WS_DISABLED and WS_EX_TRANSPARENT styles?
MIME-Version: 1.0

P.S. Sorry to add, the WM_ERASEBKGND message occurred to me, or setting the 
class-background to the "null" brush is a likely culprit. It is behaving like
a front-buffered old-fashioned application somewhat. Clipping and own-DC style 
should prevent damage, but I don't know, something seems to be responding to 
PAINT like events, that don't make sense for OpenGL.

Below is line formatted version of the old text. I have to do this manually for
new text, but the > quoted text is already hard-wrapped.

> XWin has never had a permanent picture with OpenGL. Any movement "damages" all
> windows. I know I've looked at it before, but I checked its window/class styles
> with MS's Spy++ tool today. The normal styles that govern clipping and
> permanence look fine, but it has some weird styles that normally for disabled
> and transparent windows that I wonder are the cause for its abnormal behavior
> in this regard. No OpenGL apps that just draw only OpenGL on a window have
> XWin's problem.

> To be brief, it has these unnatural window-styles in this mail's subject line.
