Preventing Flickering


Overview

By default, when you set a property or function that changes the control's appearance or data, the control automatically refreshes itself. However, when you make multiple changes or add large amounts of data, the control appears as if it were flickering because the control is redrawing itself multiple times. You can prevent these multiple redraws and flickering. Your application will also run faster.

Note: Even if you turn off the control refreshing, some changes might be shown on the screen, depending on the type of changes and the order in which they are made.
