That's just not true, I could do this any day in XAML with WPF. If you are interested in this check out the

I think it's a matter of well how you are trying to do this, or why you are saying it can't. Certain windows have different types of "refresh" schemes about them and how the programmer set up the window to do it's redraw and refresh.
I keep hearing people here complain about PCs, most of the time it's not with up-to-date hardware or up-to-date operating systems.
I am not trying to be nasty here but when I follow a thread like this and see statements like:
"I think the only people who take Windows seriously are those who've never used anything else."..
I have to tell you I have done my share of both Amiga development on classic Amiga's using SAS C and Windows Development using Visual Studio since 1994.
The Amiga and PCs are no better or no worse than each other for capabilities and performance in these areas..
This is just another typical "Amiga" thread that mirror someone's perceptions of something that just isn't the case in reality. I can prove all that with timings and code examples if anyone wants to challenge me on it.
Even on the Amiga, you can set up a window that doesn't refresh itself and redraw properly. Many 1.1 and 1.2 programs for AmigaDOS had these problems specifically..
