CefSharp: force re-render - winapi

There is a Managed C++ application. Some of its C++ (MFC) views host a WinForm's version of CefSharp. It shows everything OK.
But, there is annoying bug: when Cefsharp's window where hidden by another window, and then that window are closed, then CefSharp's window becomes completely blank. If try to resize this window or move it then CefSharp engine re-draw html content and everything is OK. But if we do nothing it stays blank forever. Is it possible somehow to force CefSharp to re-draw content on Activate or so event?
I tried to google, bot not successed ...

Vscode debugger hits a breakpoint on page reload

I'm debugging a react application using VS Code debugger for Edge (The newer Chromium edition, I used to use Chrome, AFAIR there was the same problem). When I reload a page, the "paused in debugger" label appears a couple of times, then disappears. It doesn't bother me too much, but the problem is it always opens Sources panel and because of that on every reload I have to open Console manually which is very annoying.
I'm absolutely sure I have no breakpoints on, the Breakpoints panel in Edge is empty, the Breakpoints panel in VS Code only contains my breakpoints and the problem persists if I disable all of them. I also have Uncaught exceptions breakpoint turned on, but disabling it doesn't help. Sources panel opens some React internal file, namely injectGlobalHook.js. Also sometimes after reloading a page I open VS Code to find that it opened a tab with react-dom.development.js for some reason. Is it supposed to work like this? And is it possible to make Console tab open on reload, because it's impossible to work like this

Sencha Touch 2.x clicking on button but moving pointer before releasing mouse button doesn't work

I hadn't really seen this as a problem until my client mentioned that the majority of his clicks on buttons on the app I'm developing do nothing. I enquired a little about what exactly he was doing and it turns out that he was clicking (using a mouse, this is a sencha touch app that is embedded inside of a windows application and will ultimately be running on a windows 7 UMPC 'tablet') on a button and releasing BUT the pointer had moved between the click and the release (by a couple of pixels). However this seems to not trigger the tap handler for the button. The only way it works is if you click and release in the exact same spot with no dragging inside of the button at all.
I think thats a little odd - clicking and moving the pointer and then releasing, all while still inside of the button - should trigger the event handler IMO. Clicking, moving and releasing OUTSIDE of the button shouldn't (which it does, as expected).
Anyone else experience this or know of a way to counteract this behaviour?
Thanks
Turns out that this only happens when the app is hosted within WebKit.NET browser control - if I just run it within Chrome the click behaviour is fine - can click and move the mouse and release (while inside the button) and the onTap event fires fine.

WinAPI changing parent of a ListView control

I'm developing an application with tab controls. After clicking on an icon in a tab, a popup window opens and the contents of the tab are moved to the popup window.
What I do is simple - change parent of each control within the tab to the popup window (using SetParent()). Everything works great except for listview controls (virtual listview).
After changing the parent, the listview no longer sends WM_NOTIFY notifications.
I've also tested it with non-virtual listview and the same happens.
I've searched all over google and came up with nothing, so any ideas would be appreciated.
UPDATE
After changing the parent, the listview keeps sending WM_NOTIFY notifications to its previous parent. Is this a bug in common controls?
A lot of the common controls cache their parents when they are created. There's nothing you can really do about this except to create them with the right parent in the first place.
One workaround is to register a dummy window class that does nothing more than host the common control in question, and forward messages back and forwards to it. Then you can reparent that window rather than the control itself.

JavaFX 2: Passing mouse events through to other windows?

I created a PopUp which is draggable across the screen, like a photoshop palette independent of the main window.
However, I would like the main window to react when I drag this PopUp over it, i.e. receive the mouse events from the drag.
The problem seems to be that since the PopUp is a Window itself, it consumes the dragging mouse events, and the main window never gets them.
I tried making the main windows the owner of the PopUp, however it still doesn't get them.
Is there any way to get around this ? Thanks

Hidden window takes all input

I have other application's fullscreen direct-x window, which I need to hide. I found the way to hide it by hooking direct-x create device and changing window parameters so it is not fullscreen. This works ok on XP but on Win-7 I can't use any other application because it looks like application is switching it to be foreground window so all clicks and keyboard input goes to that window. However if I click fast I can make some action. This make me think that this app is using some function to direct input to itself, or to focus, dunno what.
The other thing is that if I resize the window and don't hide it, all works ok.
I tried to hook SetCapture, SetForegroundWindow, SetActiveWindow and SetWindowPos and none of this helped.
Do you have some idea how can I hide window in other way, or what can cause this focusing to invisible window?
