Mobility Site - View Single Post - X50V Screen Corruption When Scrolling Left and Right in PIE

When I scroll a web page in PIE using the left/right scrollbars and the stylus, I invariably have screen corruption (looks like overlapping text). If I reload the page then the page contents are redrawn properly. This behaviour also occurs in other applications (e.g. PocketFeed) which have similar scroll bars. I assume the scrollbars are part of a standard Microsoft API. I don't have this problem while scrolling up and down.

I first noticed this screen corruption while using my X50V running the A1 ROM. I updated my X50V to A02 this week in hope that this would fix the problem. I tested the left/right scrollbars in PIE immediately after upgrading to A02 and before installing any software whatsoever. The screen corruption is still present. The screen corruption doesn't always happen, but is more likely to happen if I scroll left to right and back to the left quickly.

I don't know much about Microsoft API's, but my guess is that this widget is missing redraw events leading to screen corruption, rather than being a hardware problem.

Does anybody else have this problem ?

Thanks.
