when I make a display and then go to another tab, the screen clears. This is really annoying if I have a code like this:

import pygame
pygame.init()
screen = pygame.display.set_mode((0,0),pygame.FULLSCREEN)
i = 0
running = True
while running:
    i += 0.05
    for event in pygame.event.get():
        if event.type == pygame.QUIT:
            running = False
    for y in range(100):
        screen.set_at((round(i),y),(255,255,255))
    pygame.display.update()
pygame.quit()

is there any way to prevent this?

@Rabbid76 if you run this code, go to another tab, then switch back, it will erase what you drew. – someone Dec 18 '20 at 20:03
not if the code constantly draws and redraws the code, then it would reappear immediately. – someone Dec 18 '20 at 20:09

it doesn't redraw the whole thing, just parts of it, so the parts that were already drawn don`t get redrawn. – someone Dec 18 '20 at 20:14
