CEikEdwin problem

[Mart1986]

Hi, I am having a strange problem and I think I know what is happening - just wondering if anyone else has experienced this, and knows how I can resolve this issue:

I have a simple view with a bitmap being drawn to the entire view within the view's Draw() method. In addition, I have a CEikEdwin created in the ConstructL() method of the view. Initially, I see the bitmap on the view with the CEikEdwin placed on top, all is fine.

|-----------------|
|                 |
|  |-----------|  |
|  | CEikEdwin |  |
|  |-----------|  |
|                 |
|      View       |
|                 |
|-----------------|

The issue is when the view redraws (i.e. orientation changes / task swicth) - the bitmap then appears to be drawn 'over' the CEikEdwin (making the CEikEdwin almost disappeared). When I type another char, it then seems to repaint and it becomes visible again. Has anyone seen this before or know how I might resolve this?

Regards, Martin.

Can you paste your View Code?

Try to Clear the screen before you draw().

But better if you paste the code here.

Thanks for the suggestions but I've solved the issue now.

For anyone else having this problem:

In the view's Draw() method, I now call the Draw() method for the CEikEdwin forcing it to redraw.
