Morton, Great thanks for you. I found that the real display work is done by lx_do_copy() , not lx_do_composite(). The several lx_do_composite() calls' destination is not the screen. Just as you have said, it is in backbuffer. Is there any method for me to direct that my FB(screen)? By the way, I don't worry about the speed of my machine, because I use ddd(a GUI gdb tool) to debug my client program, so I can add breakpoints at where I want.

The rendering is almost certainly done using a backbuffer, a common technique for eliminating flicker from a rendering process. The backbuffer is not part of the screen, but the final Composite call copies it to the screen in the correct place. If you were to direct the same sequence of calls, minus the final one, directly to the screen, you would in theory see the bar being rendered. On a modern computer this would happen too quickly to see clearly (but would still flicker annoyingly), so you would also want to insert delays to make the process visible if you want to learn about the process. -- ------ From: Jonathan Morton jonathan.morton@xxxxxxxxxx _______________________________________________ xorg-devel@xxxxxxxxxxx: X.Org development Archives: http://lists.x.org/archives/xorg-devel Info: http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg-devel _______________________________________________ gtk-list mailing list gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
