Ted2 not repainting window contents

[RumphizParticipant]

Since ted2 v1 I have had an annoying issue that apart from RichardBetson I haven’t heard any one else mention.

Ted2 will fail to repaint the window contents after the window has lost focus. The window border and title bar are present but the contents of the window are are not drawn. Only mouse input will get the Ted2 window to redraw and then everything’s fine but even then it’s hit and miss.

The hello world sample also does the same unless I add RequestRender() to the onRender. Adding RequestRender() to Ted2’s mainwindow.monkey2 fixes ted for me, but really I’ve no idea what I’m doing.

same problem here

After a quick look at SDL2 I am guessing monkey needs to expose the SDL_WINDOWEVENT_EXPOSE event so that apps that don’t use continuous rendering can redraw their window when the OS needs it redrawn.

Now works perfectly in the latest version.
