• tuck VS 2005 sometimes hang when the "SaveAll" toolbar button is clicked

  This occurs after I upgrade to WinFX Feb CTP. I doubt this is caused by VS extension for WWF, so I uninstall it, but this problem still exists. How can I fix this Thanks!

  I'm having a problem playing video back in full screen.  The deal is that the interface for the game I'm working on tries to play a video in full screen when the user clicks on the credits button.  Now the weird part is that the video ALWAYS plays reliably in windowed mode, but as soon as we test it in full screen mode, sometimes it works, other times it doesn't.  Has anyone run into this problem and if so, has anyone figured a wa ...Show All

• S Robbins taskbar tooltips - please fix!

  In Windows XP, if you put the taskbar at the top of your screen, as I do, the taskbar button tooltips appear on the taskbar and obscure the buttons - very annoying! Of course, if the taskbar is at the bottom of the screen you don't have this problem, the tooltips appear above the bar, no matter where the exact position of the pointer is. The fix is to always display the tooltip below the taskbar if the bar is at the top of the screen. I like ...Show All
