I am getting very vague on this now, but some time ago I was having
problems drawing the background of my CMainFrame in my MDI application.
All I wanted was a user-selectable colour :-)

Anyway I remember it as being much more complicated than just
CMainFrame::OnEraseBkgnd() and my source code for doing it now has a
somewhat enigmatic reference to knowledge-base article

I'm not actually drawing anything on top of the background, but I am
drawing a gradient fill in the background and it all works very smoothly.
I seem to remember that all of the above was necessary to make it do so!


Thanks Dave, the flicker is in a SDI app, so I'm not sure it's the same
problem. I hope you like your gradient background, this sure is a lot of
work to get it! :-)
