Re: [Dev-C++] Resizing windows

[Daniel G. <sp...@ho...>]

I think it's because you are painting within the WM_PAINT message.

WM_PAINT is triggered when something needs repainting, a window moving, 
screen updates whatever - and if you are drawing within that message you 
trigger another, another etc.

Remember to use BeginPaint and EndPaint function calls to sandwich your 
drawing code.

I hope this helps, I'm a bit rusty with Windows.
