[Mono-winforms-list] Shadowed window setting ShowInTaskbar

[Andy Hume]

Hi
 
Did you get any further with this, or any response from the list?
 
I just tried it and the first time it repro-d and I ended up with three
windows, on working, one partially working and one just dead, but all
moveable.  However I have only managed to repro it once since.  I didn't
see any error, but then I couldn't close the duplicate windows, so had
to Ctrl+C out.  CPU was going made I think too!
 
Could you log it at bugzilla, http://www.mono-project.com/Bugs  That
would be great, and even better if you have a 100% repeatable repro app.
:-)
 
Andy

Subject: [Mono-winforms-list] Shadowed window setting ShowInTaskbar


Under Linux running mono 1.9_5 when I set ShowInTaskbar = False I get a
shadowed window that just hangs around in the background. The option
works (i.e. it's correctly removed from the Taskbar) but leaves that
annoying window painted on the screen. I should also note that none of
my sub-windows create this shadow, only the main window. Also, this ONLY
seems to be happening under the LINUX version of Mono. I tested under
Windows and I do not have the same issues. Any ideas? Is this more a
dev-list question?

Here is a screenshot:

Here is the error that's produced when I close the form:
