Hi Cato Thanks very much for the quick response!! Turning off Vista effects didn't make a noticeable difference I'm afraid. We are going to take a look at the stuff you wrote. We'll let you know how we got on with that. We are also going to take a look at superpanel - a link to which was

I am using FlexMDI extensively with datagrids and have not seen any performance issues although the maximum number of columns I have used so far is five. Displaying five columns with 200 rows is almost instantaneous - it takes way longer to retrieve the data from the server. I can't imagine that

Hi Julian, The SuperPanel are okay if you only need to resize a window and you will need to create all the logic your self if you wanth a docker for the minimized windows etc. And you will have the same performance problems, I have tested allready, This is because the ItemRenderes are allways

Hi Cato Thanks for your reply. Yes, you are right we want the docker stuff but don't really want to start writing it. Just checking... are you experiencing the delay in loading/context switching between windows or just the problem with resizing? In simple terms what's the strategy you are

We had non-live resizing implemented prior to the 1.1 release but yanked it due to some very small issues. Unfortunately we haven't gotten around to putting it back and fixing it. You can dig through the SVN and try to implement it if you're feeling ambitious. Shouldn't be too difficult really.

Hi Ben Thanks for your reply. I can see why non-live resizing would be less resource hungry - but do you think it is or could be connected with other problem i'm having in loading/switching context between windows? Julian --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Ben Clinkinbeard [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Honestly, no. Resizing is the only thing that is obviously intensive as it causes constant revalidation/measurement. Switching which window is in focus really just changes the style of the window. Maybe that is the problem though. Try setting styleNameFocus and styleNameNoFocus to the same style

Hi Julian- We are also using the MDI library for a large ERP-style application and experienced the same issue you are describing. The problem for us related to the updateStyles() method in the MDIWindow class in the library. It seems when the code was checking for hasFocus there was a lot

Hi Valdor Thanks very much for replying to my post. As it turned out, we still had a problem even with less columns. I'm not sure quite why that might be, but I think we are on to a solution for our problem as a result of Steve Klee's post. Thanks again Julian --- In
