common Windows 8 UI problem in MarkPad #409

Open jackfoxy opened 11 years ago

jackfoxy commented 11 years ago

There is a common problem among Windows 8 apps, in that running on a multi-monitor desktop system using High Contrast mode dragging the app window from one monitor to another results in black vertical bars. Any action which resizes the app window corrects the display, but it is an annoying bug.

The following may give someone clues how to solve this problem for MarkPad:

1) For Visual Studio 2012 the Microsoft recommended workaround is to disable hardware graphics acceleration in the environment options.

2) For TsunamiIDE the following script at app star-up solves the problem:

r "PresentationCore.dll"

r "WindowsBase.dll"

System.Windows.Media.RenderOptions.ProcessRenderMode <- System.Windows.Interop.RenderMode.SoftwareOnly

Happy for an option to be added to the settings window to enable software rendering. This should NOT be enabled by default

What's the end of TsunamiIDE? Actually it was amazing but disappeared... sad...
