Yes, all users are experiencing the same problems. Different model PC's,
some are clones, some compaqs so they are completely video chipsets. The
servers are not loaded at all, CPU doesn't go over 30%, plenty of memory
free etc - no bottlenecks can be seen. The users run multiple screens, if
they minimise 1 screen, the 2nd screen is then fine - no flicker. It only
starts to flicker if 2 screens are open. Searched the list, tried:
- changing the published app to 16 colors
- Tried using SkipRedrawPerPaletteChange=on in module.ini
- Tried changing local machines video resolution
- Tried the latest ICA client
No luck with anything. I could tell our users to minimise 1 screen but it
seems silly + some users need to see both at once - would much prefer to fix
it. Can anyone recommend any other things I could try
Thanks

A few basics, does this recur on more than one workstation. (graphic card
issue?)
Have you tried monitoring performance while the app is running to see what
it is consuming?
How about a different font?
I assume you have a reason to run more than one instance in one session?
(I.E. doctor it hurts when I do this/don't do that?)
Does it flicker from two sessions in two different workstations. (i.e. one
per user at 2 terminals)

Another issue I was hoping you could help me with. The same published
application (dodgy DOS type app), has an issue with screen refresh. You
can
open multiple windows in this app, if 1 is open, all is OK. If I open 2
and
have one behind the other, both flicker to the point where it is extremely
annoying. Im typing in one but both seem to refresh which causes
flickering.
I tried the app in a window and as a published app - no difference. We
run
WTS/Metaframe 1.8 with the latest ICA client. Has anyone had similar
issues
with other apps??
Thanks
Rose
