Does anyone know how to eliminate this white background ? whenever I move my form to different area there will be a white background appearing at the old position of the form (just a blink) and then disappear. I use VFP 7.0

This sounds like a refresh problem with your vidoe card rather then a VFP issue. Typically VFP doesn't do that by default. Go into your advanced settings of the display properties and see if changing the acceleration setting.

This is likely not a function of VFP, it sounds more like a "bad" video driver. Check for driver updates, or try changing the resolution or color depth.

Note: Also make sure you don't have any VFP code that may set or reset the LockScreen property.

That's not a BUG, that's a FEATURE! Wish I could get mine to do that. :)

I think I found my problem. In my init main program I set _SCREEN.picture = mypicture.jpg where the resolution of mypicture.jpg is bigger than the resolution of the display setting. When I resize mypicture.jpg to the size of the display setting it works fine. No more white background. Thanks guys for your input.
