Did you ever produce a fix or find a solution for this? It seems to be one of the main problems that I run into with this software. I use the "Wndows Catalog (all desktops)" hotkey all the time as my main way of switching desktops, but every so often I run into this bug. Please let me know if there's a solution.

I've noticed the same issue, but it occurs only when all windows are minimized. Here are the steps where I can get this to reproduce:

1. open two windows
2. minimize both windows
3. select your hotkey for windows catalog

Result:
The image looks like the one posted above http://dexpot.de/forum/viewtopic.php?p=33312#p33312

Expected Result:
The windows catalog is not translucent.

Note: if any one of the open windows are active, then the catalog appears to preview just fine. It's only when you minimize all open windows does this seem to happen.

Yes, it looks to be the same problem, with a translucent screen overlaying the catalog view. I can't reproduce it today though.

:dex:

Like this? May happen when you have minimized windows on some desktop.

I'm not seeing the problem after a restart today. Perhaps it develops over time the longer dexpot is open, as I wasn't seeing it initially yesterday. I'll post again if it reoccurs.

First - amazing program. So useful and I love the full screen preview and window catalog feature.

I have noticed, however, that the window catalog all desktop preview is quite buggy. I've been using it for the first time today with a shortcut key (Windows+C) and it seems to keep the currently active window partially displayed over the catalog view. This renders it unusable. I can get to the same screen from the full preview command and then right clicking each desktop. I have the animation set to 150% - not sure if this is part of the reason...
