Are there any users running Anim8or in Wine on Linux? It appears that the program consistently skips the last frame refresh after every operation. I'm getting this on 32-bit Debian and 64-bit Ubuntu. Pre-selection highlighting helps, of course, and so does pressing Alt to bring up the arc-rotate widget, but the widget stays up after you release Alt =)
It appears that instead of going forward to the final frame the viewport actually swaps back to the previous one.
Is there a way to make sure the last frame isn't dropped on any system? Perhaps an extra OpenGL call that won't affect Windows users much but will improve the Wine experience?

I'm not quite sure what to do about this without access to a Linux system to test it on. I'll try adding another call to glFlush() in the next build.

The buffers behave themselves in build 1159. Thanks, Steve!

Fantastic!  I got lucky.  Should have bought a lottery ticket!

Sorry about bumping this old topic, but I was mistaken that time. The extra glFlush() didn't really fix the refresh issue. It only seemed that way, because fast-select highlighting was forcing the refreshes. I didn't get around to posting an update on this, because I wasn't using Anim8or very heavily under Wine.
But now Wine is where I'm mainly running it, so if a quick fix is possible, it would be much appreciated. Some Windows OpenGL-based 3D editors have the same problem under Wine, but others don't, so it can't be a hopeless case.
