This is indeed possible....

I found out how to fix this hack, sort of. it turns out that using realize 
works the way you expect on window's... so (I found this out from my handy 
new book) I can do :

Realize
set flags
show

and flicker goes away, and if your problem is related to the code, it should 
too.. but I really don't want to keep flooding the list with these problems 
and fixes etc.. SO I will try my fix and send it directly to you to see if 
it resolves this issue and we can do that etc. and if we can fix this and 
any other issues I can send in one patch in a few days resolving these 
issues..(OH, did you make sure you updated Laz. from CVS to get the other 
fixes I sent last night?)

(BTW I think you are certainly trying to push Lazarus toward beta-dom with 
all these bugs your finding... keep it up, and pretty soon we will have a 
nice functional release....I hope!)

Andrew
