    Discovered an interesting problem.

    On your demo do this:

    • Run demo and set skin to TV-C. Shutdown app.[*]In the IDE, change sSkinManager1 AllowAnimation to false.[*]Run demo and notice that there is a momentary massive white background before the normal skin features takes over.

    You do not see this effect if you start the demo with AllowAnimation set to true.

    Based on the similar white background I noticed on combo box dropdown is there a common cause somewhere.

    I am calling this a problem because I am having to set my AllowAnimation checkbox as disabled – checked (it is a registry saved item) to prevent this effect.

    Update: I built a simple loop repeat which remotely starts a program and when it closes it advances the skinname to be saved. Looping through it seems that the more complex the skin this white background is more prevalent. The skins that appear simpler do fine (white background pretty much not noticeable) such as (ubuntu and windows 8/10).

    Hello

    Some parts of background are white because this background is painted when not all controls are ready yet.

    If the TsSkinManager.AnimEffects.ShowForm.Active property is True then all form image is prerendered before a form showing.

    You can set Time to 0 there and form will be shown without animation and without white rectangles on the background.
