Version: (using KDE Devel) Installed from: Compiled sources Compiler: gcc 2.95.4 OS: Linux Hi, There is some redrawing behaviour with KHTML that's rather disturbing. The following is what is taking place : - Visit a website with a non-default background color - Scroll a little (doesn't matter how much) down the page - Now hit F5 (reload), go back in history or click on a link You can see the view is completely erased with the default background color first, after which the page is rendered on it (with a different background color). In effect, this results in a completely white view for a short moment during browsing - very stressful for the eyes (especially when this background turns to black after this white flash). The strange thing is (that is, to me) that this behaviour is not observed when you don't scroll, or scroll back to the top of the page (so the page is completely at the beginning). As this is pretty bad on the eyes and because IE and Mozilla both handle this 'properly' I was wondering if anyone had an idea about how much trouble it would be to fix this. I've looked through the source myself but, as I expected on beforehand, I couldn't locate the place where this gets done. Thanks in advance for any replies on this matter, Jelmer Feenstra
testcase?

As is stated in the bugreport, this happen all the time - there is no possible 'testcase' I can give you except for what I've already described in the report. If you don't understand what is going wrong let me know and I'll try to explain it differently. Do not close this bug unless you know what is going wrong (I already talked to Dirk Mueller about this one, he told me it was related to Qt).

hmm, I don't see that. But there have been some major rework in the repaint handling
ok, set color scheme to CDE and hit F5 on slashdot
fixed in CVS. I still have some on-going work to get even less flicker at page transitions but I don't think it's in the scope of this BR.
Germain doesn't have it that much with the bugzilla UI :)
oh boy, even on my favourite bugfix :(
