Hi,
I'm running through some DBP exercises, mostly from Hands On Dark Basic Pro.
On one computer, I follow the examples and write my code and it works fine.
On the other, I run and compile the same code but I sometimes get an annoying screen flicker.
This happens in both fullscreen and window modes.
I traced this behaviour down to (string) functions and more recently I’ve experienced this with BITMAP operations.
I’ve tried copying my entire DBP directory from the working computer to the other one with no success. I’ve even recently upgraded the graphics card from an NVidia 310 to an NVidia GT 710 (latest drivers). My main PC has an NVidia 670 GTX.
Any ideas on what might be causing the flickering and how to fix or work around it?
Any help is much appreciated!
Thanks, in advance.
Example code 1:
PRINT LOWER$("ALL lower CASE")+" "+UPPER$("all upper caSE")
WAIT KEY
END
Example code 2:
REM *** Display an image on the screen ***
LOAD BITMAP "media\eyecol.bmp", 0
width = BITMAP WIDTH(0)
PRINT "This image is ",width," pixels wide"
REM *** End program ***
WAIT KEY
END
