Hi everyone!

Anyone else experienced this issue? :

At work I have a dual monitor setup (2x 1680x1050). When I maximize a window on one of the monitors, sometimes the titlebar of the maximized window bleeds over in the top corner of the next monitor. (Maximized window on right monitor = tiny bit of titlebar "shadow" or something in top right corner of left monitor).

I'm not 100% sure but I think this only happends with per-pixel border skins. I have tried disabling per-pixel borders and the problem seemed to go away. But that just made the windows look weird so I turned per-pixel back on..

This has been an issue for as long as I have had the dual monitor setup (6-8 months or so), always using fairly recent drivers from ATI and latest version of WB. (I don't upgrade ATI drivers every month since it seems to require IT staff to disable antivirus on my machine first. Currently using Catalyst 8.12, I think. I'll test with latest drivers (Cat. 9.3?) tomorrow and see if it makes any difference...)

(Not exactly a showstopper-issue, but very annoying anyway. If anyone at work had known how much time I have spent just staring at that &%¤% top-right corner of the screen without doing anything productive I would've been fired a long time ago! )

 

Using (Norwegian) XP, SP3.

I get this too, but only with Adobe InDesign CS4, which doesn't even skin. Maybe try the AutoConfig settings on your monitor?
