Window Title bar redraw issue on Win7 #61842

@BoskiDialer

Description

@BoskiDialer

Issue Type: Bug

On Windows 7, with system->advanced system settings->advanced->performance->adjust for best performance (required to reproduce) window title bar blinks when doing any of the following actions:

  • switching between open files
  • saving file
  • making first change in file after it was saved/opened

Blink is less than 100ms, after this, title bar is redrawn correctly using vscode theme. Larger window size makes blink last little longer as redraw takes more time.

Bug is highly repetitive and irritating.
