Hide highlighting from SetSel

[printz0r]

Hi,

I'm using SetSel in my RichEditCtrl window to replace certain lines of text. The problem is its not aesthetically pleasing when the window highlights the word for a split second and then replaces the text because it seems to flash the screen in a seizure like manner.

How do I hide the highlightings from SetSel?

I solved the issue:


In the on create
SetEventMask(GetEventMask()|ENM_UPDATE);

then activate the message handler

void CCtrl::OnEnUpdate()
{
::SendMessage(m_hWnd,WM_KILLFOCUS,0,0);
}

and then finally set the option to
HideSelection(1,1);


but now I have to manually update by calling
UpdateWindow();

Which is fine..
