@macca tried fixing a tearing issue with debug bitmap display by creating a new window in the loop, at the start, and then "close" -ing it at the end.
But this seems to have been a horrible idea... Several windows appeared at same time, none of them showing any data and then appears to have actually broken the system.
Looks like I need to reboot...
@Rayman said:
Also tried "clear" and "update" mode, clear caused second window to open with both blank. Update mode doesn't seem to work.
Not sure if works in Prop Tool or not...
Maybe will try that later because not exactly sure of syntax...
CLEAR simply clear the window (all black), should not open any other window.
UPDATE performs a window update, it should be used when the auto-update is disabled with the UPDATE keyword on the setup line (the first line that opens a window).
Maybe there is a clash when windows with the same name are closed and reopened too fast, hard to tell.
I don't know what you want to accomplish but I suggest to try with the standard ways, keep the window open and use the RATE, UPDATE or DLY commands.
Are you trying to debug a problem with the bitmap window or with your program ?
