No atmosphere.
I know its an old joke. But funny.

You really had to Insert all of these puns, didn't you? I don't know if I need a Pause or if I need to Escape before I lose Control. I need to Function for the rest of the day, I can't send an Alt to do my job.

I suppose it's closer to yesterday. But I guess it can be.

I'm building a control library in C++ that sits on top of my IoT graphics library and provides interactive user interface elements, kind of like winforms, but less elaborate.
I hate dirty rectangle finding routines. I've never been able to quite wrap my head around them, and to the degree that I can, what I come up with is almost certainly a naΓ―ve approach and not optimally performant.
1. Go through a list of controls. Of the controls that are visible and need to be redrawn. Find overlapping controls. If they overlap then you want to draw them both at once so you don't send to the display twice. Making an overlap list is way more difficult than I want it to be. But basically we create buckets of controls.
2. For each bucket of overlapping controls:
2a. try to create a bitmap that's large enough to hold all the overlapping controls in the bucket
2b. if you can't then split the bucket into several rectangles, and draw the controls more than once if need be. (more difficult than it sounds)
2c. call the render method on each control in the bucket, and then call the screen render callback to send that bitmap to the appropriate position on the display
I can articulate the above, but implementing it is another matter. With the full STL it would be much easier, but I don't necessarily have access to it, so I have my own simple vector library.
Absolutely frustrating. I'll solve it - I already know how, more or less. It's just a matter of stewing on it, creating the code, testing and optimizing it. In some ways I'm close - at least in terms of design - but beyond that may as well be the moon.
Edit: The above isn't quite right algorithmically, and I've since adjusted things.

Can you be helped by the fact that a filled rectangle will hide any rectangle that it overlaps (or pieces thereof) drawn earlier?

It actually makes it more complicated, because in order to avoid sending a region to the display twice you must track the overlapping portions of the screen, draw them to an offscreen bitmap, and then draw that to the display so you only do it once.
It's really important to limit screen I/O, even at the expense of CPU. The bus on these IoT monsters is usually pretty slow. Often 1-bit serial.
