Previewed windows hide grouped thumbnails while browing them

obs 7 years ago updated by Michael (Ramen Software) 7 years ago 5

Hello

For some reason after a recent update the program started to behave different while previewing the windows of grouped thumbnails. Hovering or clicking over the taskbar icon shows the thumbnails ans before, but now hover over the thumbnails previews their windows *on top* of the thumbnails and not behind them. This, of course, occludes the thumbnails and prevents informed browsing of the different windows of an application. When there any many of them (as is typical with a web browser, for example), this becomes annoying.

Many thanks for a really fantastic tool!

I can't reproduce this. Do you think that this is an issue of 7+ Taskbar Tweaker? Does the issue occur when the tweaker is not running?

Many thanks for your quick response

You are right. Terminating 7TK did not resolve this issue :(

So I guess this is a system "feature", but now it is even more puzzling why you cannot reproduce it. Or why I have not noticed this earlier.

It this turns out to happen across the board (and not only to me), do you think 7TK can take control to avoid this misfortune behavior of the taskbar?


Maybe it's an actual bug of Windows, which was introduced in one of the recent updates. You're using Windows 7, right?

I assume that it's possible, but it's not a priority for me to look into it, sorry.

For some unexplained reason behavior now switched back to normal. I begin to suspect that this is some unstable cross application interaction between programs I have installed and 7TK that affects the windows task manager. In Any case, thank you for responding about this.

I'm closing the issue, as it doesn't seem to be related to 7+ Taskbar Tweaker. If you find out that the tweaker is involved, leave a reply or open a new ticket.
