TGB application gui bug

Hey Everyone,

Just a quick image to better describe the problem.

i33.tinypic.com/300h9b8.jpg

As you can see, the menu bar is hidden underneath the top standard menu. I couldn't find a way around this. I tried un/reinstalling, even tried version 1.6.0 but with no luck. Not only is it hidden but to there is an "offset" between the mouse and the location of an item I would actually click.

In the image, there is a black spot representing where the mouse cursor would be. Cursor is not on the image yet it is selected. If the cursor was to move onto the top half of the image, it wouldn't be selected any longer.

This effect goes for anything that is click-able. Menus, items, etc.

I was wondering if anyone else had similar problems and if there is a way around it.

Specs:
Vista Ultimate
ati 1950xt
Anything else?

I have similar problem in Vista Home Premium and Radeon HD3870. The problem only seems to occur when using Aero. Try changing color scheme to Windows Vista Basic or Windows Standard.

Thanks! Everything is working fine. Bummer I have to switch to between settings but I'll live. It may just end up on standard for good. Maybe somewhere down the line this will be fixed... whoever is responsible for it. 8)

I found an easier solution to the problem than manualy changing settings or permanently changing them. Select "Disable desktop composition" from "Compatibilty" tab in shortcut properties. It causes windows to change scheme automaticaly when running program.

Same issue for me, Windows Vista home premium 64 bit. Unchecking Disable desktop composition worked. Thanks jussie!
