as mentioned previously here.
when you alt-tab out of DROD and back in, the page doesn't refresh properly, giving you a nice view of your destop with bits on top.

I am running winxp service pack 2 home edition, with really cheap dell computer, and this bug happends about 50% of the time.

I think I've fixed this in 2.0.15. Would you apply the 2.0.15 candidate patch and see whether the problem persists?

Make sure to back up your files as well. Some great changes that you've made there, Mike. As Ezlo said in the candidate patch thread, I liked that bug. I'm going to delete the two of my rooms that had it in there.

Keep posting,

ok, I tested it, and it works fine :) .

However, apon installing the patch, DROD no longer covers the entire screen. I have tried making it windowed and restarting, but it still doesn't cover the entire screen. :(
I'm not sure if this is related either, but I thought I should kill two bugs with one post.

<----- Again, here is proof.


nevermind, DROD didn't like my custom GUI for windows.

Its odd though, as it was happy with it with .14 .
