However, when I tested it in Rendezvous Browser, when the
new update window comes to the front it flashes the area the window
appears in white before actually drawing the window. I haven't been
able to figure out why it's doing this, so that's what I'm asking
about. Does anybody have any idea why it's doing this? Could it be
related to the fact that I post a notification in a detached thread and
catch it elsewhere? When I do this, does it catch it in the main
thread, or does it catch it in the detached thread?
Not sure about the latter question, but doing GUI in a thread other
than the main thread doesn't really work right now. Make sure you
send all your messages to actually create a window or otherwise
manipulate the GUI to the main thread.
