The update on the fly is a very important feature.
In my application for example , there are multiple RTOS threads that updates their own corresponding fields on the screen.
Each thread is not aware of anything but its own section of the screen.
So if that feature is not enabled, it means the threads need to redraw the whole frame!!!

You are right, I thought I can draw each list independently !
But now thats a problem.
Assume I have a frame already drawn and then I wanted to add a new object to the existing frame,
Is that possible ?
Or I have to redraw the whole frame from scratch ??!!

Hello all,

This is my API to draw a button.
As per the picture on the attachement , the button is rendered as expected but the background is not correct !!
In this example I cleared the screen to red, and then sent the CMD_BUTTON, so any idea about whats behind the button ??
