Conemu: Render bug with ConEmu and Sublime Text in Quake slide mode

Created on 26 Jul 2015  路  14Comments  路  Source: Maximus5/ConEmu

Hi,

I'm having strange issue with Sublime Text 3 and ConEmu.

So, my ConEmu is in Quake slide-down mode, and whenever I hide it (using Alt + T).
My last window (Sublime Text 3) gets render bug, I don't understand really what is it.
Here a screenshot

Whenever I minimize / restore the ST3 window, the rendering is "fixed" and I get what I should expect :
Here another screenshot

I don't know which settings could cause that.
And to be honest, I don't even know if it is Sublime Text's specific, as it doesn't happen on another program's window like Chrome, Foobar2000, Skype, Steam or whatever.

The workaround would be to use ConEmu without the Quake slide down thing. But, I would hope to find some help here to fix that.

Thanks in advance!

Alternatively, you can set the "Animation time (ms)" value to 0 in ConEmu (found under the "Main > Quake style" subsection of the settings dialog) to mitigate the issue until Sublime Text fixes their bug. I found this issue via a Google search. I hope this helps!

This was supposed to have been fixed a few months ago. I guess not with Quake slide-down..

Can you link the issue related to this ? Maybe, I could lend a hand and submit a patch :).

Similar to #106

  1. You run Sublime outside of ConEmu. Therefore ConEmu do not "control" Sublime at all.
  2. You said that another programs do not have a painting bug.

So, why do you report Sublime bug here? ;) That is definitely Sublime problem and must be fixed by their authors.

PS. Mentioned issue and commit was about ChildGui, application running inside ConEmu.

@Maximus5 Like I've said, I wasn't sure if it was ConEmu or Sublime Text's issue.
I'm sorry, I'll report it then on ST bug tracker. :)

Do you mind keeping this issue open so that if someone want to search it, it can land here.

And I'll mention this issue on the ST bug report.

Thanks for your time!

Anyone may search in closed issues.

Please post here link to created ST's issue.

To be clear. Hiding Quake mode window do nothing special, just calls WinApi function - AnimateWindow.

I suppose so, but when disabling it solves the issue, so I don't understand myself.
(The issue has been linked, but here again the link : https://github.com/SublimeTextIssues/Core/issues/952)

In case anybody stumbles upon this issue and still has the problem, I have at least a workaround: https://github.com/CherryDT/sublime-glitch-fixer

Thanks polytrophic that's perfect, and I didn't even have to download an executable that edits my registry 0_0

This is great to know!

(And @jjfmarket - if I understand your comment correctly and you are salty about the way I solved this - please know that this is a solution I did for myself and just shared it because I thought it could help others, it wasn't polished; it edited the registry for convenience and if you were afraid of the executable you could have compiled it yourself, and even patched out the registry edit, as the source code is on my GitHub...)

@CherryDT Not salty and I appreciate your effort, but it pays to keep a healthy skepticism of such things.
