Window is flickering when playing animation

[christooss]

Version of Dear PyGui

Version: 1.3.1 (same issue persists in 1.3.0)
Operating System: Arch Linux

My Issue/Question

I've tried to use the Raccoon Music player - https://github.com/bandit-masked/raccoon and when I try to use it, the animations are flickering. I've contacted the developer and they said this might be a DPG bug.

To Reproduce

1. open app,
2. start play (that start the animations (look at the video posted down there)
3. pres stop
4. press "close area" to close application.

Expected behavior

I expect animations to be smooth.

Do you have a integraded graphic card ?

I'm using Nvidia on 470.103.01 version of drivers.

Thanks for the report, we will look into this!

@christooss You could try adding dpg.configure_app(auto_device=True) before calling dpg.create_viewport() in gui.gui. If you have two graphics cards, e.g. one integrated and one external, this command would force DPG to use the external (the best) graphics card. I have never used it -- I don't have an external graphics card -- but Illu has used this with success with his application.

Same issues apply, no change with adding configure_app thingy.

Still looking into this!

I have "flickering" issues when resizing window too.

I think these two issues are related. More info about my system that might be useful: I'm running Cinnamon that doesn't support Wayland so I'm running Xorg.

Hopefully fixed in the next release.
