RE: Open Form Flickering

Hi Greg,

Yes, I can reproduce this behavior.

Further reseach shows that this flicker is caused by twice paint behavior
of MDI forms in VS2005. The bug below reported this issue:
"MDI client forms with FormWindowState.Maximized paint twice upon calling
Form.Show()"
https://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/ViewFeedback.aspx?Feedba
ckID=96015

I have tried many ways to work around it, but all failed. For example, I
added a timer in the application and delayed the showing of the form after
several seconds, but the flicker still exists. Currently, we have no good
solution to workaround this problem yet.

I would recommend you to submit a bug feedback in the link below. This
feedback will be routed to the Winform dev team for consideration:

Thanks.

Best regards,
Jeffrey Tan
