WinUI 3 (Win32 and UWP) lags in resizing #2506

Open BreeceW opened 4 years ago

BreeceW commented 4 years ago

Describe the bug UWP XAML windows fairly smoothly fit their content to the window as it is resized. WinUI 3 apps, both Win32 and UWP, do not. Win32 apps reveal a white background underneath, and UWP apps reveal the splash screen background color (yellow in the middle GIF below).

Steps to reproduce the bug

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Open a Win32 or UWP app that uses WinUI 3
  2. Drag the edge of the window to resize it and observe a delay and undesirable colors as the content fits the window

Expected behavior There should be only unnoticeable delay in the content resizing to fit the window, like in UWP XAML.

@bartekk8 for FYI

Possibly related to #2203, which shows "Window resized" as taking a long time in the perf trace on startup.

This code can hide the flashing emitted while the window size changes


#include "microsoft.ui.xaml.window.h"
#include <winrt/Microsoft.UI.Interop.h>
#include <winrt/Microsoft.UI.Windowing.h>

  auto windowsNative{ this->m_inner.as<IWindowNative>() };
  HWND hwnd{ 0 };
  windowsNative->get_WindowHandle(&hwnd);

  // Retriver the windiws id that corresponds to hwnd
  Microsoft::UI::WindowId windowsId = Microsoft::UI::GetWindowIdFromWindow(hwnd);

  // Lastly,...
  Microsoft::UI::Windowing::AppWindow AppWindow = Microsoft::UI::Windowing::AppWindow::GetFromWindowId(windowsId);

  SetWindowLong(hwnd, GWL_EXSTYLE, GetWindowLong(hwnd, GWL_EXSTYLE) | WS_EX_LAYERED);

Any updates/thoughts here from the Microsoft side? This defect is widespread enough (including apps like Edge) that I think it's worth reengaging with.

i agree, basic resizing of an extremely simple window should be a very smooth transition, not a laggy one
