Vista 3D window flip vs tabbed chats by steVenB on 03-02-2007 at 04:16 AM

I tried to do the 3d film with my windows but my conversation window with tabbed chats did not appear. Im not sure if this is a bug but I thought I would mention it.

Are you sure you have the latest version of Messenger Plus! Live? The latest version is 4.20.0.262. This was a bug in the old version.

This has been disgused before, there was a lot of information talked about in Windows Vista :: 3DStacked Windows Bug.  I hope this helps you understand the problem, lets hope Patchou can do something about it for us.

If the contact window isn't minimised (restored), then you should have it in the background of the 3d flip.
If its minimised, then it won't show up at all. Either way, its not part of the 3d flip, just in the background.

You can blame the lack of the dwm api on the part of Microsoft for that :P
:) (and yes it not showing up in the 3d flip is a feature, not a bug. Earlier a blank space was visible, this doesn't happen now since its totally removed from the flip and just placed in the background :))

EDIT: All of this only if you have tabbed chats enabled (which you do in your case) :P
