Zoom Player 7 doesn't show up in Windows 7 Flip 3D [win+tab]. Can this be fixed?

BTW: I'm on Win7 x64.

For Booga: I can confirm this one - Zoom is indeed missing. I thought it may have been a renderer issue, but changing renderers does not correct it. lol - But I did find a bit of an issue with the renderers while I was testing this one, I've posted about that in the closed forum :kudo:

It didn't show for me either, but for some reason after a couple of tries it's now working.

Odd. It definitely does not show for me either under Windows 7 (64bit) or Windows 7 (32bit)...

I seem to be able to force it to appear after a few tries - I suspect it needs to be at the front when you press Windows-Tab. After it has started working, it seems to keep working normally during the rest of that session (including having moving video in the preview).

Yeah, I don't know then. I've just tried it a dozen times with Zoom at the front each time, and it just doesn't show up. It isn't a problem for me, I don't use Win+Tab (don't use Alt+Tab either), but if it can be fixed, it would be nice I suppose. Anyway, bug has been reported, we will let the dev's sort the problem out.

I don't have any timeframe for specific bugs.
I'll put this one as one of my reminders to dev, but I don't know what difficulties dev will encounter when they'll try fixing it.

Windows management is something that is wholly controlled by Microsoft code... We don't really do anything special here and it does show up occasionally if you play with it.

But this is a glitch in Flip3D, I've seen several other glitches with Flip3D (like showing child windows instead of the main window).

We're not really aware what mechanism Flip3D uses to catch the ZP window, so I doubt this can be fixed :)


P.S.
To get it to show up in Flip3D, you need to minimize the ZP window. Once minimized, it does show up on flip3d.
