Database name flickering in Object Explorer
Version 3.5.3.29
SSMS 2008 Express, connected to local 2005 Express instance, running on Windows 7 as a guest within VMWare Workstation.
As standard I have all my databases offline, and bring them online individual as and when required.
The database name in the Object Explorer shows the "spinning" white and blue dot - but is constantly flickering/flashing. It will do this until the "Commit changes" or "Get latest" tab has been viewed... even if the Source Control screen is not even open (let alone having focus).
The only way to stop it is to open SQL Source Control and refresh the "commit changes" or "get latest" tab.
A very minor bug, but a really annoying visual one.
