Taskbar always visible

The taskbar is always visible when I use GZDoom. I don't know if this is a bug in 1.0.22 or if it has something to do with the new video card I put in my computer.

Check if it's in window mode by mistake.

It is not in windowed mode.

Also, when the taskbar is minimized, that area is still not drawn and I can see the desktop (?).

The taskbar usually acts a little funky with apps like GZDoom, but this is a little extreme. I believe sir, this is a bug.

Sorry for the bump, but I just saw this one. Try setting GZDoom's screen resolution to your current desktop resolution. This used to happen to me all the time.

*BUMP*

Try setting GZDoom's screen resolution to your current desktop resolution.

This is still happening. It never happened with my old GeForce 4, but now always happens with my Viper X1300. It will fix itself if I change the screen resolution in-game...

Have you tried hitting the WINDOWS key, or hitting ALT TAB a couple times? You may need one other app running in the background for ALT TAB to work, so you may want to load up Notepad before hand.

I hope that when ReactOS is good enough to run GzDOOM on, that this will not be an issue with it too!

This does nothing.

Hmmm, that typically does it for me. I dunno what to say in that case...

...wait till Parallels 3.0 comes out and buy a Mac? That's my next step.
