Summary: Flickering window title bar in Su Doku Active in virtual desktop mode Product: Wine Version: 1.2 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: trivial Priority: P2 Component: user32 AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: markk@clara.co.uk

This bug applies to Su Doku Active by Greenstreet Games. Unfortunately I don't think there is a freely-downloadable version of this game.
When running in virtual desktop mode, the window title text flickers as the mouse is moved. There is no flickering in Windows XP.
The game requires MFC42.DLL, so it could be some call to that which is calling SetWindowTextA repeatedly as the mouse is moved. It may be that Windows checks the title text being set, and optimises out the rendering if the text is the same as the existing title.
Attached is an extract from a WINEDEBUG=+relay log which shows several calls to SetWindowTextA.

--- Comment #3 from Mark K markk@clara.co.uk 2013-01-31 10:00:21 CST --- I tested Su Doku Active with Wine 1.5.22 and the problem is gone, at least with the default Wine settings.
Out of interest I did a regression test. The commit which changed things was:
commit 33ac850c80634c891b0c157bbffa612f70954a40 Author: Alexandre Julliard julliard@winehq.org Date: Thu Sep 6 12:39:34 2012 +0200
winex11: Use window surfaces for rendering top-level windows.
It can be disabled by setting "ClientSideGraphics"="n".

If I create the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\X11 Driver\ClientSideGraphics registry key and set it to N, the flickering comes back. It might be that with the now-default ClientSideGraphics=Y, rendering is much faster so flickering is not noticeable, but this issue is still technically present.
