Strange Behavior of Window Menu

[Daniel]

Hello Everyone,

I am using VS 2002 (VB.NET) and have a MDI application in which the user
will open several child windows at the same time. I have included a menu
Window, which MDIList property is set to True. I also have all the
traditional menus included in it (Tile Horizontal, Vertical, Cascade, Arrange
and Close All).
The strange thing is that when the child windows are open in normal window
state everything is OK, but if I set the their window state to Maximized the
Window menu starts behaving very strange: the first time you click it the
next menu on the right opens (Help menu), you have to click again to open the
Window menu. Also, there is some flickering (sometimes) when you close one of
the child windows.

I was wondering if anyone had noticed anything similiar. I am not sure if I
am doing something wrong or there is a bug in VS 2002?

Thanks in advance,
Daniel

Daniel,

I thought that there is a bug in the part which you are busy, however if it
is exactly this one, I don't remember me.

I thought that I once made a workaround for it so maybe can you try that
yourself.

I hope this helps,

Thanks Cor,

I will try to use your workaround. Meanwhile, I tried the same code in VS
2003 and it seems to work fine, that what makes me think that it may be a bug
in vs 2002.

Thanks again,
Daniel
