I've got a related problem that just cropped up. I can activate/inactivate
the "hide inactive icons" feature is I go into properties and then customize
in the following way: take one of the entries that says "hide when inactive"
and change it to, say, "always hide." Apparently changing the setting for a
single item will get the thing going again.
but, related problem: the icons that are set to "hide when inactive" don't
seem to want to hide for this username (even though I tinkered, as above, for
this same username). The same feature seems to work fine for other users.
any idea if there's a way to tinker w the settings to recalibrate how long
it takes for something to register itself as "inactive"?
(also related: had same problem on office computer all of a sudden, worked
for several hours and nothing disappeared as inactive; left computer on
overnight, when I came back in morning it was functioning properly. weird.)
thanks?
