Start11: Taskbar flashing every time when changing desktops

from Stardock Forums

Hi, I use Start11 with my taskbar on top. Every time I navigate from desktop to desktop (CTRL+WIN+→ / CTRL+WIN+← ), the taskbars flash and appear at first at the bottom, then they move to the top. Is it a standard behaviour or a bug that could be addressed? Does anybody else find this hardly usable? Or maybe it's my settings making it glitch?

I tested and I see the flashes but not the taskbar move to the bottom and up again. Refer to my short video below.

The flashes, I believe, that look normal to me since the taskbar background been applied again after the desktop changed. But, for your system the taskbar move to the bottom. 

Just to make sure Start11 was properly install. Please try, uninstall Start11, reboot immediately (important), download latest version available in your account product download page: https://store.stardock.com/myaccount/products. Install it, reboot immediately again. Retest it and report back.

Thank you,
