dear all, maybe I am doing it wrong by sending you directly e-mail, if so apologies. The following questions I have asked just recently (extract from a personal mail message): ... Is it normal that when amaya displays a screen it refreshes the same page multiple times (also when using the scroll bar to go down or up in a document) on Windows NT ? ... ---- The following answer came back which seems to explain the flicker (which is actually multiple repaints on the screen): ... Amaya is mainly an editor and for doing that it provides an incremental redisplay mechanism. So each time it receives a display it re-paints even the notified area. It's possible that Amaya receives too many redisplay events when it starts. I've never paid attention to that. Perhaps it's due to the fact that the Amaya window is too high for your screen. In current version you have to edit the configuration file Thot\amaya\HTML.conf to change default windows sizes (see how to configure in help pages). In next version you will have a configuration menu. ... ---- My comments/experience : it is caused by to many re-paints, not by the fact that the window starts out of the current screen settings. Also the same problem seems to be in the commercial version : "Opera 32" , which I think was the base for Amaya because most of the developers of Opera now work for W3C on Amaya.
