I''m getting some very strange things happening to my program. I have a button and when I put the mouse over it, it changes color. This worked fine and then I updated some other part of my program, ran it and the button flashed between it''s two textures. I hadn''t done anything to the ogl part of the code and so was stumped. I left it about a day, updated soem other stuff and when I ran it this time it worked. I thought that I must have changed something without realising it. When I finished workin on it for then it was working perfectly, but when I came back to it later the flashing between textures had started again. As I hadn''t even done anything to the code I want to know what is wrong. Could it be that my computer is running slower (more programs) and so you can see the screen refreshing? Please help this has been driving me crazy. Tera_Dragon ____________________________________________________________ Programmers Resource Central

exactly that. First of all it is green, then when the mouse is over it the texture changes to a red one. But it flashes VERY fast between the two. It wasn''t doing this before even though I havn''t changed the code at all.

or if some other part of your code prosesses mouse input, make sure it doesn''t "steal" it away from the button.

or, you set the hover state on WM_MOUSEMOVE and resets it in some other update function without checking the mouse position.

endless possibilities... isn''t it fun?

I''m having deja-vu and amnesia at the same time. It''s like I think I''ve forgotten this before.
