WB 5.01 glitch when maximizing minimized windows

from Stardock Forums
Hi... I'm having an issue in WB 5.01 where windows contain a graphic glitch after being maximized from the taskbar. It *only* happens on WB5 skins - any older skins are completely unaffected. Any suggestions/advice on how to repair this issue would be greatly appreciated!

any suggestions how this might be fixed? thanks

EDIT: yes the dual monitors is definitely causing the problem... I changed my display settings to one monitor and the problem disappeared. I *would* like to continue using WB 5 on a dual monitor set-up, so any help fixing this would still be greatly appreciated

OK fixed the problem myself, but will post the fix in case anyone else has a similar problem.


The problem was that I had disabled multiple monitor window spanning in the nVidia control panel. Once enabled, it cleared up the problem immediately. The only thing I miss is the "Maximize Window to Current Display Button" on my title bar (none of the nvidia title buttons work with WB5 skins). Other than that, everything works perfectly.

Thanks for the help.
