I have a textbox that I applied the WS_EX_TRANSPARENT style to, and a bitmap background for my main window. My problem is that whenever I select text it flickers and sends a 'bar' across the screen on whichever line of text I'm selecting. Is there any way around this?
Have you looked at the erase back ground mesage, WM_ERASEBKGND.
I do not have a IDE atm so not sure what you should return, check MSDN. This should reduce the flicker.
