It would be very nice if we can get rid of other flicker in gvim (eg. scrolling). I have tried twice to implement a double buffer for gvim. but failed.
MacVim will not flicker and nvim-qt will not flicker too, Is it possible to have a non-flicker gvim ? since it's 2017 now. Erasing and drawing directly on the screen without a back buffer is something as old as windows 95. 在 2017年6月6日星期二 UTC+8上午1:32:57,Bram Moolenaar写道: > Patch 8.0.0626 > Problem: In the GUI the cursor may flicker. > Solution: Check the cmd_silent flag before updating the cursor shape. > (Hirohito Higashi, closes #1637) > Files: src/getchar.c > > > *** ../vim-8.0.0625/src/getchar.c 2017-04-08 18:41:07.339941299 +0200 > --- src/getchar.c 2017-06-05 19:28:16.696484466 +0200 > *************** > *** 2913,2920 **** > } > #ifdef FEAT_GUI > /* may unshow different cursor shape */ > ! if (gui.in_use && shape_changed) > ! gui_update_cursor(TRUE, FALSE); > #endif > > --vgetc_busy; > --- 2913,2928 ---- > } > #ifdef FEAT_GUI > /* may unshow different cursor shape */ > ! if (gui.in_use) > ! { > ! if (cmd_silent) > ! gui_dont_update_cursor(TRUE); > ! else > ! gui_can_update_cursor(); > ! > ! if (shape_changed) > ! gui_update_cursor(TRUE, FALSE); > ! } > #endif > > --vgetc_busy; > *** ../vim-8.0.0625/src/version.c 2017-06-05 18:46:20.497845949 +0200 > --- src/version.c 2017-06-05 19:06:06.449739127 +0200 > *************** > *** 766,767 **** > --- 766,769 ---- > { /* Add new patch number below this line */ > + /**/ > + 626, > /**/ > > -- > "How is your new girlfriend?" > "90-60-90 man!" > "What, pale purple?" > > /// Bram Moolenaar -- b...@moolenaar.net -- http://www.Moolenaar.net \\\ > /// sponsor Vim, vote for features -- http://www.Vim.org/sponsor/ \\\ > \\\ an exciting new programming language -- http://www.Zimbu.org /// > \\\ help me help AIDS victims -- http://ICCF-Holland.org /// -- -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist.
