 I have a rule which makes inactive skype chat windows roll up (Split Window view in Skype). This has been working fine for many years, but recently on Win 10 (a few weeks - skype upgrades and AWM upgrades involved), the windows stopped rolling up properly.

What usually happens is that a new chat window will open (either me or from receiving a message) and display. I then reply or call. Then on de-focusing the window, it will roll up about two thirds of the way. If I then activate it (it unrolls) and deactivate it, it then rolls up all the way to the title bar. Sometimes the windows get stuck like this for 2 or 3 'unroll / rollup' cycles before they roll up fully.

I haven't yet seen a specific pattern, other than once a window _has_ rolled up all the way, it usually keeps doing that for the rest of its life.

I don't use rollup on other windows, so I haven't seen if this is a general rollup issue, or something with skype, but since there have been other problems with the way skype creates / manages its windows, I wouldn't be surprised if it's a skype specific thing.

Please let me know if you need any other info to reproduce...

Tx.

 Hello, David

Isn't it the same problem you've reported about in this topic?

 Sorry - yes, it is, although that thread focused very much on the size / edge snapping. So much so, I'd forgotten that I'd mentioned it in the original post! Failing memory...

Is it the same cause? In which case I guess this can be closed...

 David,

Yes, it is the same issue, as the one you wrote about in the mentioned old topic. It has been confirmed that time, we'll try to fix it.

Best regards.
