Hi all,

I wanted to post a quick update and maybe close this issue. It turns out I have been able to reproduce this problem outside Dexpot. So this is related to the interaction between Cygwin and Windows 7.

Thanks anyway to all the people that looked at this issue.

Windows 7 taskbar unhiding after desktop switch

Post by fdv » 12.05.2017 17:40:45

Hi,

I use a combination of Dexpot and the Cygwin XWindows server under Windows 7. I have my Windows 7 taskbar seto to autohide. I have several xterms open in different desktops and when I switch between them the taskbar gets raised. It doesn't hde again until I go through each of the xterms. When I pay attention to the last one the taskbar hides again.

Any idea how to fix this issue? I don't want the xterms to raise the taskbar each time I switch desktops.

Best, Fer.
