This issue has been resolved.
Descriptive Problem Summary:
When nullifying an output, it flickers. It looks very unprofessional.

Code Snippet (if applicable) to Reproduce Problem:
usr << null


Expected Results:
No flicker.

Actual Results:
Flicker.

Does the problem occur:
Every time? Or how often?
Every time.
In other games?
Yes.
In other user accounts?
Yes.
On other computers?
Yes.

When does the problem NOT occur?
When I jerry-rig childs with winset() to switch out, and make the output null behind the scenes.

Workarounds:
Set up a Child
Use one output on a child
Winset to another output on the child
Null the original output on the child
Winset back to the original output

A Workaround you could define:
Have a bit flag for de-flickering which would use a process such as this, probably making use of winclone()
"All" is not a version, and this also is not a Dream Maker issue. Please edit your report to include valid information.
Done...I think.
