Hello Eric, Thanks for the reply. Yeah I forgot to mention that in the Glade file I had set double buffered to false for both GtkDrawingAreas. I also tried setting them to false directly in code once I finish loading/configuring it from the glade file.
gtk_builder_connect_signals (builder, DO); g_signal_connect (recordingArea, "realize", rec_realize_cb, DO); g_signal_connect (viewerArea, "realize", view_realize_cb, DO ); gtk_widget_set_double_buffered (GTK_WIDGET(recordingArea), FALSE); gtk_widget_set_double_buffered (GTK_WIDGET(viewerArea), FALSE); One thing this did make me realized is that in my source dir I have a copy of a tutorial/example. "basic-tutorial-5.c" (http://pastebin.com/4 gaWhCJs). It compiles and runs fine - updating the scrollbars without a flicker. It also sets the double buffer to false. So I'm wondering if it has to do with the notebook. That or the fact that I have two drawing areas. One in each notebool panel that is causing the issue. It is just so bizarre that its suddenly occurring years after it was written. Any other ideas? -- Nathanael On Fri, 2016-12-09 at 18:59 -0500, cecas...@aol.com wrote: > > It could be a problem with the double buffering. > > gtk_widget_set_double_buffered() > > Try to set that to false and see if that makes any difference.
