That's why I say it's a transparency conflict issue. You need to point this out to the folks at support@stardock.com .

Gute Nacht Tom...

Hopefully he went to bed....

I threw everything he has on a test bed and still can't reproduce this.......


He either has a stuck .ini/script file loading or it's the monitor and I can't fathom it's that. Frankly, I've never seen anything like it that couldn't be fixed rather easily, but maybe Stardock support has. Since a zillion people use this stuff and he's the only unfortunate person that has this anomaly, I'm fairly certain it's not a Stardock app, but for my money:

No Nexus dock, OD set to no transparency , always on top. With a window with transparency(as in inactive using WFX)  above the lower edge of OD I get this when the focus goes from the window to the dock. Not every time and I don't know when it started as I don't use OD often anymore.

Randy....tell us what's on your machine? OS, Card, rainmeter?  nVidia?

If WFX is disabled, do you still get that rectangle under any other circumstances?

Never mind, I see it.... WFX does it for everyone and it's underneath the dock verus over. Thomas does not have WFX installed.

yrag knows all.......

but for the curious: Win7 Ultimate 64bit, 8800GT w/latest drivers, no rainy, sidebar off, Winstep off, only IE8 and OD2.0 on screen , WFX on, inactive window trans on, momentum on, shrink/minimize-expand/restore on.

I may have not noticed it at all if not for WFX, I apply transparency to the sidebar gadgets all the time and have never seen this.  DX widgets with trans. also have a shadow box, I'm trying some out now. Not a biggy to me, but worth reporting anyway.

Anomalies don't quite cover it, apparantly. Dammit.

I should add that it still does this with WFX disabled. Widgets with transparency applied have the shadow if a dock icon is moused over and bubble effect is applied on the dock....if they are above the bottom edge of the dock.

Haven't seen that. Did it always do it, or just after you installed WFX?

I'm not at all sure it's rainy. Maybe it's just a transparency issue and not tied to a specific app/app conflict. Whatcha think Yrag? Also not WFX/OD necessarily.

OK, here you go.  I remembered seeing it  it once or twice then when I saw this thread, I decided to see if I could reproduce it. I haven't used OD much lately so I have no idea when it started. Bubble effect is what I normally have  set.

Yeah.... it was the upper left/right of the pic I wanted to be seen.... the shadow is under the dock and over the weather/uptime widgets.

After seeing Wiz's last pic, I'm not sure you're not right. It clearly affects other apps on the desktop. Bottom line.... it could be Windows 7.........

Indeed...I wanted you to think about that... or an incompatibility between a W7 update and these apps? I wonder also if Wiz moves his Nexus and takes transparancy out of the WFX...then mouses over will he still get those bars?

Might help to know when it all started.

Winstep off , WFX disabled. All I need is OD2.0 set to bubble effect and a widget with transparency set. Place it on screen above the lower edge of the dock then mouse over an icon. The dock shown in my ss is OD2.0, not Nexus
