I'm just trying to draw an ellipse:
case WM_PAINT:
hdc = BeginPaint(parentWindow, &ps);
Ellipse(hdc, x, y, width, height);
EndPaint(parentWindow, &ps);
, and then erase it with drawing a new ellipse with some new parameters every second using timer:
case WM_CREATE:
SetTimer(hWnd, 1, 1000, NULL);
break;
case WM_TIMER:
x += 5;
InvalidateRect(hWnd, NULL, TRUE);
break;
But ellipses are not erased and layered:
However, i tried to trace WM_ERASEBKGND and it really is sent every InvalidateRect.
