Im writting an app that uses full screen forms ( borderless ) and I find
that when I go from one form to another the contents of the forms are
getting render together , as in you can see part of screen 1 on screen 2 for
a short period. The time that springs to mind is when I hide form 2 which
contains a large picture box and display form 1 which contains a login box.

For the sake of it being more visually pleasing I would like to have the
screens wait until they are rendered and then display, instead of doing it
items by item.

In a round about what Im guess what im asking is there any way to prevent
the screen from updating until the form is fully rendered ?

look at double buffering, suspendlayout/resumelayout, doevents,
refresh,
