i too am having problems with this version blinking like crazy. it's very annoying to try and read something that blinks - albeit with an irregular frequency to boot. the original poster indicated that windows blinked. mine do too but only the bottom panel in the "search" and "monitor" windows. i don not have to move the window for the blinking to start - it just does and rate of which the flashing occurs is very irregular. the only way to get the flashing to stop is to click on a line and hold down the mouse button. once you release the mouse, the blinking will restart. the blinking will stop and then start up again and sometimes flash up to 35 times before settling down. the window will hold steady for a while and then go wild. it's anybodies guess when the next flash cycle will start....
the only observation i can bring to the table here, is that this quirky behavior seems to occur only with the dynamic part of the window is refreshed. any static info does not flash. it's as if the refresh is working overtime.
i applaud the efforts put forward with this version. it's a vastly improved version that flies for me. but i doubt if my mouse is going to survive much longer if i continue to use this version. the flashing is so annoying, i've thrown the mouse across the room three times now. i'm trying my best to look beyond this bug and just deal with it, but i'm having trouble with that, big time!!
any other observations? ...and, is this a recognized bug?
