c# - Prevent WPF window flicker

I've got a borderless WPF window that needs to be able to hide one of its controls and shrink the window at the same time.

The problem is that it looks terrible.

Here's what I am doing now:

private void btnShowHideTopBar_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
    if (commandTopHide == true)
    {
        txtblkShowHideTopBar.Text = "Show Top Bar";
        commandTopHide = false;
        myWindow.Left = 1100;
        myWindow.Width = 180;
        RSide.Width = new GridLength(0, GridUnitType.Pixel);
    }
    else if (commandTopHide == false)
    {
        txtblkShowHideTopBar.Text = "Hide Top Bar";
        commandTopHide = true;
        myWindow.Left = 1030;
        myWindow.Width = 250;
        RSide.Width = new GridLength(70, GridUnitType.Pixel);
    }
}

And here is what it looks like in slow motion:
the window flickers

To correct this, I have tried a few things. Each of which apparently only apply to Winforms.
For example, I followed this blog post at Bee Eee to disable drawing and 'lock window update' to no avail.

I've also tried overriding the WM_PAINT message as seen in this post but I got stuck on what to do with the message once I catch it. The line base.WndProc(ref msg); throws the error "'System.Windows.Window' does not contain a definition for 'WndProc'"

Granted, that code was for Winforms and I am using the hwndSource.AddHook method as described in How to handle WndProc messages in WPF?)...



My xaml is fairly massive due to a my custom buttons, so I'll leave that out. Here is what's left:

      Template="...the stuff I left out..." Foreground="White" Background="{x:Null}" BorderBrush="{x:Null}" Margin="3,2,3,3" Grid.RowSpan="2"/>
</Grid>

@Walt Ritscher, I don't know about 'hiding' the column, I'm just setting it's width to 0. But the bigger problem seems to be that I need to resize and reposition the window that contains it.



@ErnodeWeerd, I've implemented a stopwatch as you can see here:

    Stopwatch s = new Stopwatch();
    string a; string b; string c; 

    s.Start();
    myWindow.Left = 1100;
    s.Stop(); a = s.Elapsed.ToString(); s.Reset();

    s.Start();
    myWindow.Width = 180;
    s.Stop(); b = s.Elapsed.ToString(); s.Reset();

    s.Start();
    RSide.Width = new GridLength(0, GridUnitType.Pixel);
    s.Stop(); c = s.Elapsed.ToString(); s.Reset();

    MessageBox.Show(a + Environment.NewLine +
            b + Environment.NewLine +
            c + Environment.NewLine);

This is the result:

You can use a transparent window (AllowTransparency = True) with a grid, then when your control needs to be hidden you can set the visibility of the control to collapsed. There will be no flickering and no moving of the window but there won't be anything there either so you will see throug as if you would have resized, moved your window.
