Front panel controls and indicators flicker inside Tab Control

[hls]

I'm using a Tab Control to organize controls and indicators by functions or processes.  I notice that all of them no mater which tab I’m in, flicker.  I don't have any item overlap each other.  Even more strange is that when I made a similar Tab Control within the same application and transferred all of the controls and indicators to it, the flicker went away.  In the end I kept the new tab control and deleted the old one and everything is working great.

Anyone has any idea why this happened?  Also I wanted to post this problem/solution in case anyone else has a similar problem in the future.

hi there

what's your LV version? i remember some bugs with LV 6.x and tab pages.

what controls do you use? dou you handle with huge data amounts in graphs, pictures etc.? Or do you write to controls with very high rates?

The best next step would be to post a stripped code that reproduces the behaviour so we can take a look at it.

I'm using LV 8.5 for Window 2000.  As I mentioned in the original post, the problem went away by just creating another Tab control and moving, without any modifications, the controls and indicators to it.

Thanks for the reply,

Hector
