in an inherited TabControl that's being ownerDrawn, is there any way to prevent OnDrawItem from being called when the width of the control is changed? essentially i need the tabstrip to stay the same but im changing the width of the control for the needed functionality (animated sliding right-aligned tabcontrol) ..i have a timer going while the width is < the itemSize height or whatever..it FUNCTIONS fine it's just that OnDrawItem() is getting called for each of the tabs EACH time the width is changed and it's causing horrible flickering, even with double buffering..i've set ControlStyle.ResizeRedraw to false without any luck, it's still calling OnDrawItem -- just wondering if there's any way to prevent OnDrawItem from being called, or preventing it from DOING anything when i'm animating (i've tried setting a boolean while im animating and if (!currently_animating) { // do my DrawItem functionality here } but it's still doing some base set of drawing (I'm assuming the separator lines and such) ..any ideas? Thanks!
