hb860 Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Well, just tried this.Firefox is constantly flickering, I am unable to use it.Windows drawing is VERY slow (like software-based DCE in Longhorn 4066/4074).Sometimes it makes all other windows flickering for a moment.My OS is Win8 x64 Pro Retail.Debug log is attached.debug.7z Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigmuscle Posted January 29, 2013 Author Share Posted January 29, 2013 (edited) Yes, it is slow, because it writes to debug log very often ;-)Ad firefox. Do you use any plugins? If yes, could you disable them (if possible). I don't use FF at all, but I tried installing clean version and it works without any problems.Just a message to everyone: if everything is working correctly for you then uploading debug log is useless ;-) it is helpful only in situations when you don't see the blur, crashes etc. Edited January 29, 2013 by bigmuscle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've come across some queer behaviour with iTunes: the contents of the iTunes window are not displayed, only the border is drawn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WindowsOS Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Just a question, has anyone tried with pure Direct3D 11.0 or 11.1 graphic card and can confirm that it works properly for him? I just want to know whether DWM uses D3D 10.1 for windows drawing in all situations or it is just for compatibility reasons.It works properly for me.

hb860 Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 I will try with new clean profile for FF without any plugins and will post results here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORelio Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 (edited) Hello,thanks for the demo it works perfectly for me. No blinking windows.It's a bit laggy when lots of windows are opened but otherwise, nothing special.here is my D3D11CreateDevice line in my log :D3D11CreateDevice (DriverType = 0, Software = 0, Flags = 169, FeatureLevel = B000, device = 0xEC05E398)Just one thing, would it be possible not to display the popup "Preview Only!!" ? (And the console window ?)It's a bit annoying if I put the application on windows startup :/Anyway, good job! I registered expressly to post a reply to your thread PS: iTunes can be downloaded from there : http://www.apple.com/itunes/I can confirm that the iTunes window is totally unvisible, there is just a slight shadow over the window edges showing that itunes window is openedhere is a screenshot: http://img203.imageshack.us/img203/8339/itunesshadow.jpg Edited January 30, 2013 by ORelio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORelio Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 (edited) OK, I'll wait for the final version. Good luck for the bug hunting So that's not possible to skip the message box... Unless...//Some C# codestatic class Program{ [STAThread] static void Main() { Toolbox.VolumeMute(); //This will mute the "Ding" sound Process.Start(new ProcessStartInfo("C:\\DWM\\DWMLoader.exe")); //Launch the app Thread.Sleep(100); Toolbox.closewindow("DWMLoader"); //Skip the dialog by closing it Thread.Sleep(1000); Toolbox.VolumeMute(); //Unmute the volume. Done. }}public static class Toolbox{ public static void closewindow(string name) { Process[] procs = Process.GetProcessesByName(name); if (procs.Length > 0) { if (procs[0].MainWindowHandle != IntPtr.Zero) procs[0].CloseMainWindow(); } } [System.Runtime.InteropServices.DllImport("user32.dll")] private static extern IntPtr SendMessageW(IntPtr hWnd, int Msg, IntPtr wParam, IntPtr lParam); public static void VolumeMute() { Form Form1 = new Form(); SendMessageW(Form1.Handle, 0x319, Form1.Handle, (IntPtr)0x80000); }}... I'll launch the preview "not intended for regular use" on windows startup anyway ^^ Edited January 30, 2013 by ORelio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigmuscle Posted January 30, 2013 Author Share Posted January 30, 2013 ad iTunes: it does not seem to like its window to be layered and it does not work either with any utility which makes windows transparent (e.g. bLend,WinAeroGlass etc.).

BTW, I am the person behind Winaero -----------Tried with clean FFWorks properly. Edited January 30, 2013 by hb860 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
