There is a bug in WLM

Hi, I found that there is a bug in WLM. Sometimes, when you minize WLM to
tray and then activate it, an extra dot line shows under the bottom left of
the Display Picture.

I am using the web news group so i cannot attach an image here.

Greetings Kevin,

Would you mind throwing one up a screensaver on http://www.imageshack.us? And are you
referring to the latest WLM 8.1 beta release or 8.0? Regardless it isn't happening to me
here so it may be a driver thing.

Here it is: http://img135.imageshack.us/img135/5507/wlmbugne1.png

Sometimes when I move the window or click on other controls, it appears. I
am a C++ Programmer, I have a lot of GDI/GDI+ experience, so I am sure it's a
bug.

I can capture a video if you need.

Yep! I have the same thing. I noticed it too (weird huh?).

It doesn't seem to appear until you hover over one of window buttons
(minimize, maximize, close).

You also get it even if you show the menu bar at the top. It appears when
you hover over the “Hide the menu bar� button.
