You may find these techniques useful:

You could always just use SetRedraw(false) before updating controls and then
SetRedraw(true) after and that helps sometimes. This is especially true for
list views and views with edit controls.

I found several articles how to avoid flickering in dialog with help of
double buffer.
But all of them describes case when drawing functions like LineTo() and
others
are used to draw on memory device context surface and then all bitmap is
copied from memory to window device context with BitBlt().

I need to avoid flickering in CView derived which contains several another
modeless dialogs placed on CView derived view. These child dialogs
contains
many controls: buttons, checkboxes, list boxes etc...
My question is if it is possible to use double buffer technique also in
this case ?
If yes, where can I found some example, doc or links ?

Thx !
