Re: configure-event and double buffering

Problem solved.
To prevent flashes of the black screen during configure-event we need to implicitly call actual drawing procedure right after the off-screen buffer is recreated.

static gboolean configureCanvas(GtkWidget *widget, GdkEventConfigure *event ) {
if (pixmap) g_object_unref(pixmap);
pixmap = gdk_pixmap_new(widget->window, widget->allocation.width, widget->allocation.height, -1);
drawAll(); // just add this!
return TRUE;
}

Full source of my test application is in the attachment - may be it would be useful for other cairo-newbies :)

It works fine on a static window, but when I actually change the size of
the window the whole drawing area goes black for a moment.
What am I doing wrong?
