Hi,
I'm on PB 5.46 LTS (x64) on Mac OS High Sierra. Even if I run the WebGadget example from the PB help, the content (website) is flickering. The more action, the more it flickers (scrolling, mouse movement). Opening the same pages in Safari is with no problems.
The flickering also appears on the PureBasic Help pages. I believe PB help uses WebGadget to display the help, too. So it might be a general WebGadget issue?
Any idea about how I can stop this? Is it the same for others?

Re: [PB 5.46LTS] WebGadget content flickering?
I did a video of the flicker. Sadly, it does not show all the flicker, but most:

Hi Kukulkan!
I do not use a Mac, but I know such a problem on Windows and Linux too.
This had to do with the hardware acceleration of the browser and old graphics card drivers.
I think it is due to the display settings of the browser. (Renderer)

I can't confirm any flicker running the 1st WebGadget example from PureBasic help using PB 5.46 x86 on MacOS 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard) and PB 5.46 x64 on MacOS 10.13.6 (High Sierra).
What hardware are you using for your video demonstrating the flickering?
My hardware is already 8 years old:
iMac 21.5', mid 2010
Intel Core i5 3.6 GHz
12 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
ATI Radeon HD 5670 512 MB

Re: [PB 5.46LTS] WebGadget content flickering?
I get the flickering too. Lots of it. It's like there's no hardware acceleration or something. Debugger is off.
Code: Select all
If OpenWindow(0, 0, 0, 1024, 600, "WebGadget", #PB_Window_SystemMenu | #PB_Window_ScreenCentered)
WebGadget(0, 0, 0, 1024, 600, "https://www.purebasic.com")
Repeat
Until WaitWindowEvent() = #PB_Event_CloseWindow
EndIf

I do not have any flickering, but trackpad 2 works bad.
