Screen flicker when minimized to tray

Hello

Got a strange issue here and wondering if you have any ideas. When PhonerLite is minimized to the system tray, windows flicker where text is shown in a list, for example Task Manager's Details tab on Windows 10.

This stops as soon as PhonerLite is opened from the tray and I can replicate it 100% of the time. Is there any code in PhonerLite which could be causing this when it's minimized?

To replicate on my machine, open Task Manager and go to Details. Minimize PhonerLite. The Details tab begins to flicker. Restore PhonerLite from the taskbar and the flicker stops.

Any ideas?

Other users told me about that too. But I can't reproduce that here. Nothing flickers at all.
I can only do something if I can reproduce that here. I have PCs with onboard graphics and another with Nvidia graphics card - on both PCs no flicker.

Pleased to hear it's not just me!
I'm using an AMD Radeon R5 200 series graphics card and the latest drivers are installed. I haven't seen this issue happening with other applications.

Is there any code which runs only when PhonerLite is minimised to tray?

There is NOT anything doing different when minimized. Therefore I can't tell you what I can change.
Without reproducing that problem I can't do anything.

You can disable the icon in the systray - that's all at the moment. Sorry.

Hi,

to provoke the flickering you can just use Spotify for Windows (Desktop APP) and minimzed PhonerLite.

Hope this will help.

regards

Please check if the statistics page is the active one in your PhonerLite. Select another page (logbook, phonebook, ...) or download the latest beta version.
