Hi Dmitrii, it is indeed intended behavior so I am rejecting that task. There are several scenarios where you wan’t canvas to allow a repaint even while hidden so we cannot make such assumptions. I.e prepare content before it is shown on screen, using a canvas as an image source for another canvas or even reading out pixels values directly from the buffer without ever showing it on screen. A canvas is also a data structure and it’s visibility is not related to actual contents. Your workaround would be a good way of handling it provided you know that none of the above scenarios apply to you.
