Observation

Hey Jim,
Just thought I would post about something which is happeneing when using MA3.

I use Ultramon to allow me to ahve more flexibility with my multimonitor setup. MA3 works fine in full screen accross both but when I press "F" and put MA3 into windowed mode then the right hand screen always gets a black background. I can still use that monitor as normal and the Ultramon Smart taskbar still appears and works perfectly but the background changes to black.

When I close MA3 down then the background image comes back just as it was.

What happens if you move the MA3 window or another window around on the black screen?
Thanks to Morgan, Tiny Snapshots is up and running again with "Tiny Järvafält" as the latest addition – Go have a look and tell me what you think.

"We knew the world would not be the same. A few people laughed, a few people cried, most people were silent.
I remembered the line from the Hindu scripture, the Bhagavad-Gita. Vishnu is trying to persuade the Prince that he should do his duty and to impress him takes on his multi-armed form and says,
'Now, I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.'
I suppose we all thought that, one way or another.

The window doesn't "repaint" the desktop where it passes over?.
