After the latest Windows update, the Windows task bar always shows up, covering part of the image in full screen view. Obviously, this is somewhat annoying when you're trying to look at an image distraction-free on the monitor.

Incidentally, the program's full-screen mode has always been a bit wonky, occasionally requiring a change of focus before the task bar disappeared. Hopefully you can fix this.

Edit: Forgot to mention. This is on Windows 10, with Smart Pix Manager v15.0.

Hi

Is this the Windows 10 update that was released this week (anniversary edition)?

Yes, that's correct. Nothing else of significance has changed on this machine that I can think of.

Hi James

I'm still waiting for that update to hit our systems. I'll investigate after that.

Hi James

I cannot reproduce this in the latest update of Windows. Is there any more information you can give me?

Hmm, strange. It's pretty consistent behavior, and my machine isn't in any way unusual. For what it's worth, no other programs (including my own apps) seem to exhibit this behavior in full screen mode. Are creating a window or changing styles with WS_POPUP | WS_VISIBLE? That's typically how this is done.

I'll let you know if I have any other ideas about this.

Hi James

Sorry I cannot see any issues with the code, but I will look into it in more depth when we do the next update.
