AUTOCOMPOSITED property (Window)
Description
If set to TRUE$ then the window uses double-buffering during sizing operations to achieve smoother rendering.
Property Value
This is a Boolean property.
Property Traits
| Development | Runtime | Indexed | Scaled | Synthetic |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Get/Set | Get/Set | No | No | No |
Remarks
This property implements the WS_EX_COMPOSITED Extended Window Style: If the AUTOCOMPOSITED property is set to TRUE$ then the style is set before the sizing operation and reset afterwards.
Results of using this property may vary depending on whether or not Windows is using the DWM for rendering. If the DWM is active (i.e. on Windows Vista/7 running full Aero, or Windows 8 onwards) then using this property may actually degrade the rendering operation.
Example
$Insert Logical // Example – set AUTOCOMPOSITED for the current window. Call Set_Property_Only( @Window, "AUTOCOMPOSITED", TRUE$ )
