How do I stop SAPGUI Windows redrawing every 15 seconds

[pokrakam]

Hi,

As per the title, the SAPGUI windows redraw every 15 seconds - it's particularly noticeable because the icon bar flashes and it's driving me nuts.

I had something similar a long time ago when I tried out the "Time settings" in the color settings, but that's switched off. I went through the tweak SAPGUI options & tried different themes, including the new signature design and they all do it.

Running on Vista Business x64, 8GB memory.

SAPGUI 710 patch level 11

Any input appreciated.

Cheers,

Mike

Hi Mike,

we do not know such an effect.

Is it only SAPGUI refreshing or the whole desktop?

What additional software do you use? E.g. Virtual Desktop Managers?

Hi Martin,

I'm not running anything special - I don't even use the new Vista theme because I find the old Windows Classic more responsive.

It's only SAPGUI that redraws and it's only really noticeable in the icon bar. Happens exactly every 15 seconds. I will try fiddling with my environment and see if there's anything that may affect it.

Thanks,

Mike

Hi,

For what it's worth, I traced it back to a third party slideshow screensaver (AzureBay). What I do find interesting is that I do not see any effect in any other applications, only SAPGUI.

Cheers,

Mike
