The screen flickers randomly (and always when resizing) on Mac Pro #408

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
On MacVim Snapshot 64, 10.7.3 Intel Mid 2010 Mac Pro.

When the MacVim is open (I'm using a dark color scheme modified from Dessert), 
the screen would from time to time flickers (which can be easily triggered by 
drag the window to resize also). I have tried the Experimental Renderer as well 
and same problem stays. Please help fix this!

A (slight) flicker when dragging to resize a window can be hard to avoid, 
although in my experience it is not bad.

However, I have never had any flicker in any other situations.  Perhaps you 
have some plugin that causes spurious redraws?  Try disabling your plugins.

I have a similar issue with a Retina Macbook Pro when resizing the window.

It creates a bizarre window pattern/artifacting that immediately disappears 
after the resize is complete. However it is a bit jarring.

I managed to catch a screenshot that shows this effect happening

Also, I am using the new experimental renderer as well. Since I believe I have 
to with a retina mbp.

Also to note: I took the screenshot on an external monitor which is not retina, 
but the results are identical.

I also get this (but only when resizing horizontally) on version 7.4 (snapshot 
72 -- installed using homebrew). Retina mbp too. No plugins installed.

Exact problem : 
"I also get this (but only when resizing horizontally) on version 7.4 (snapshot 
72 -- installed using homebrew). Retina mbp too. No plugins installed."

find it distracting
