Bug ID: 57439 Summary: FL Studio: many 3rd party plugins violently flash in child windows Product: Wine Version: 9.21 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: lildebil.mgt@gmail.com Distribution: ArchLinux

As the title says, In FL Studio, many 3rd party vsts have flashing GUIs that make them unusable and possibly hazardous to a select amount of people with photosensitive epilepsy. This only happens in FL Studio, likely due to how it handles plugin windows. In other DAWs that let the window manager handle the plugin windows this does not happen.
Side notes: 1. Most of the plugins with this issues are based on the JUCE framework 2. Whenever there is an option akin to "Disable OpenGL rendering" in the plugin settings, turning it on will usually fix the flashing, but it is almost never available.
Steps to reproduce: 1. Set the wineprefix to Windows 7, to avoid bug 57247 2. Download and install FL Studio 2024 Trial - https://install.image-line.com/flstudio/flstudio_win64_24.1.2.4430.exe 3. Download and install one of the plugins with this problem (put .vst3 file into C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3) - https://github.com/tobanteAudio/modEQ/releases/download/v0.4.0/modEQ-v0.4.0-... 4. Scan and open plugin in a mixer track, drag plugin window or start audio playback to see the issue.
I am using wine-staging 9.21 and proprietary Nvidia drivers
