Re: [platform-ui-dev] asyncExec and flicker

Yes they do, but the usage of asyncExec
and Defer layout in Platform UI itself should also be revisited/reduced.

I think these topics should go to the SWT mailing list.

I'm seeing a lot of flicker in Eclipse due to asyncExec, and a lot of inefficient layouts due to inappropriate layout calls.

I know Daniel and I were concerned about these issues ten years ago, and it seems that they're still a problem.

I've filed ( https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=468848 ) to track the issues with asyncExec, and bug ( https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=468854 ) requesting an easier and more efficient mechanism for triggering efficient SWT layouts.
