display problems in CListBox control

[dima2]

*Sometimes* (it isn't an all the time problem) a List Control will just not redraw. You can minimize a dialog that contains a List Control and when you maximize the dialog the control just is gone until you do something to force a repaint of portions of the control (such as clicking on one of the invisible items). Or you can place another window over part of the control and when you remove the window the portion of the control that was covered does not redraw.

Does anyone have any idea, why this is happening?

look through your code and make sure your redraw is called in these such instances. If the redraw is called, it will redraw regardless...for some reason or other, it's not being called in the instances you mentioned. Rob

i made sure that the redraw functions are being called everytime, but sometimes they just don't do the job
why?

make sure you are calling your redraw for your controls as well as your window...a good idea would be to use the onUpdate (or on refresh, i forget) for each window to preform a redraw on all visible controls, AND the window itself. Rob
