Remarks

To reduce the time required to repaint a View on scrolling, the Grid Control implements the partial redraw mechanism. This is invoked if the AllowPartialRedrawOnScrolling property is set to true. In this instance, the grid only repaints the new section of the View that appears on screen. The rest of the View’s graphic surface is simply shifted depending on the scroll direction.

If the AllowPartialRedrawOnScrolling property is set to false the entire View is repainted when a View is scrolled by a single column or row.

The partial redrawing mechanism is not used in the following instances:

if the grid control’s background image is specified via the grid control’s BackgroundImage property;
if the cell merging feature (GridOptionsView.AllowCellMerge) is active;
