[AccessD] Flash and Flicker

[James Button]

Sorry - 
Can't say if it is win-10, just I don't remember any flash & flicker from 2010
under win-7
Actually, can't remember any intrusive flash & flicker effects running under
win-7
- but again - as an Access 2010 user, - no development for over a year - well,
nearly 2 years now.
And I was using 2010 until recently (had to go 2016 to match the stuff the
clients are now getting on their new PC's) 
2010 Excel VBA under 7 gave no noticeable problems
2016 Excel VBA under 10 - I haven't got comfortable enough with it to, by
default,  expect smoothness, but I suspect I'm not getting it .

Could be that win-10 has changed your driver - either a new version, or subtly
different usage setup options  
 
Again - cannot help you with that, just from the 'SIW' output, I know there's
probably lots of choices for the OS to select from.

Win 10.  Just moved to it.  Don't know if it's W10 causing the problem
because I upped to A2010 after the W10 upgrade.  I'm not seeing the flash in
any other Office module, though.

What OS,
I'm not making much use of access nowadays - mostly Excel & Word  I am
seeing occasional 'flickers' or flash of something under Win-10, in various
apps and they were not there under win-7 An older Lenovo system 2GB - 2TB
Seagate drive, 2 core 2.4Ghz CPU, 64 bit-Win-10 Pro.

Maybe in settings/controlpanel tweak your running - mode changing
performance to the screen apps rather than background, and lose some
animation?

Also - I can see the attraction of 2010, but would have thought going 2016
was the more logical step -avoid the extra annoyance of dealing with the
2010->2016 changes as a separate rain-burn-in.

Machine's got lots of memory - 8GB with only 27% being used.  Maybe there's
an updated driver for my video card?  But this problem is only (AFAICT so
far) in access design view.

New one on me, Rocky.

Sounds like a display driver issue perhaps? Or memory.

Dear Lists:

 

I am developing in Access 2010 now - just oved from 2003 (about time, no?).

 

In design view, however, I am getting flashing or flicker in several places
the most obvious is moving from one property to another on the property
sheet.  But using the Navigation Pane I get it as well when scrolling and
when I stop scrolling the focus shifts and I have to scroll some more to get
to the object I need to open. 

 

I can't find any reference to this problem on the internets - plenty on
flickering in form view, but I can find nothing about this problem in design
view.

 

Has anyone seen this problem?

 

TIA
