davej 251 Posted March 4, 2014 Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 I can't see how it could be relevant to web development. I would suspect they are talking about desktop application programs. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/b367a457%28v=vs.110%29.aspx Quote Link to post Share on other sites
justsomeguy 1,135 Posted March 4, 2014 Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 Double buffering uses 2 frame buffers, a visible one and a hidden one. When a new frame is rendered it first gets rendered to the hidden frame. Once that is finished, it copies the rendered frame to the visible buffer. Doing that causes a smoother animation then if you have a single buffer where you render the frame. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
