Did you try the Wiki? Do a title search for "Drawing", and you'll get a =

bunch of references.

&titlesearch=3DTitles

Here's a short lesson however.

The system sends a "Paint" event whenever the window needs to be =

re-paninted, so you need to make sure you bind to that event, and paint =

your window there. In your code, you're drawing to the Window, and then =

Show()ing it -- when it is shown, it needs to be re-drawn, but you're =

not doing that. To do that, you need a custom Panel (or Frame, or =

Window), in which you have bound and handled the paint event.

See enclosed sample.
