Repainting Error for applet when using Browser scrollbar? PLEASE HELP!!
Is this a known bug?
I created a real straight forward applet that just has a bunch of controls on it: JButtons and JLabels to test to see if this was a bug.I ran it on IE 5.5 using the Java plugin 1.3_1. I noticed that when I scrolled down in IE to view the lower part of the applet the applet did not repaint correctly and everything on the applet appeared to be messed up. But when I scrolled to the top or bottom of the page of the applet, the applet repainted just fine. The repainting of the applet messes up only when I scroll in between the top and bottom of the applet. Is this a browser problem, or a hardware problem, or a java problem?
Note: This does not occur on all machines. For instance, it works just fine for my machine but does not work on other machines.
Any suggestions, Please Help!!
thanks,
Peter Landis
I dont have a solution for you, but jsut wanted to say I have the same thing with a (third-party) applet in an IE5.0.x browser. It happens when the applets scrolls out of the visual area and back again. The part that went out of visual range is then garbled sometimes

One possible work around is to capture the output of the applet into an image and redisplay that output once a second reguardlessly if the output really needs to be redrawn. This wastes processing time, of course, but it might make it display better to the user.- Mike

Here's the problem. This error seems to be a problem when you are running the JSDK 1.3.0 or any plug-in such as the Java Plug-in 1.3.01. These releases currently have a problem with a repaint bug. If you upgrade the SDK to 1.3.1 or even the plug-in and run the applet, the repainting of the applet when you try scrolling is fixed. This must be a bug in the JDK 1.3.0 that have not yet been reported.
