White box on startup

[Solluxx]

hello, probably something stupid I'm missing with this but I'm sure one of you smart people can help me out. Every time I start-up my game I get a small white box in the upper corner. It is only there for a split second, and one the game goes through a draw cycle it's gone, but it is still off-putting regardless. Basically I have my RenderWindow set to a certain video resolution, then I stretch it in 3X to get a pixel-y look. The white box is the actual video-resolution. Below I have some quick code so you can see what I mean.

#include <SFML/Graphics.hpp>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
    sf::RenderWindow window;
    window.create(sf::VideoMode(320, 240, 32), "test");
    //window.clear(sf::Color::Blue);//Thought I would try and through a clear in a number of points in the code
                                                      //Obviously, it didn't work
    window.setSize(sf::Vector2u(960,720));
    window.setPosition(sf::Vector2i(200,100));
    window.setFramerateLimit(60);
     while (window.isOpen())
     {
         sf::Event event;
         while (window.pollEvent(event))
         {
             if (event.type == sf::Event::Closed)window.close();
         }
     }
    return 0;
}
 

Thx for any quick fixes you may have

You resize the window, but you don't update the drawing area...  Why don't you just create the window the size you want it to begin with?

#include <SFML/Graphics.hpp>

int main()
{
    sf::RenderWindow window;
    window.create(sf::VideoMode(320, 240, 32), "test");
    window.setSize(sf::Vector2u(960,720));
    window.clear();
    window.display() ;
    // ...
