Description Eric White 2010-04-16 07:46:31 UTC
If precisely 1 window is visible, and the hide button is clicked, then it disappears rather than docking into the taskbar.  This behaviour seems the same as described in bug 93650, which in turn matches for the upstream developer's description of the fix made in the next version 1.35, at the above URL.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Run windowlab.
2.  Open some windows.  Hide all but 1.  Check they dock into the taskbar.
3.  Hide the last window.  Check if it is docked into the taskbar.

Actual Results:  
Window simply disappears, no taskbar entry.

Expected Results:  
Window should hide, but have an entry in the taskbar which can be clicked to show it again.

I went straight to the latest release 1.40, since other bugs were described as fixed by the developer:

http://freshmeat.net/urls/691e3704c3fa47999486b4b1ffa3da84

downloaded it to /usr/local/src.

I added the "Fixed" font entry as per the 1.34 patch and bug 145907 into windowlab.h, and hit make;make install.  I am running Windowlab 1.40 as I write on my amd64:

Should be fixed in windowlab-1.40. If not please reopen. Thanks!
