Hello,
Customer reports weird problem.
LinkWorks 3.0.8 (win 3.11) clients randomly "stays on top".
This means applicatios like WP, but also the event screen
of LinkWorks are behind the users LinkWorks desk during
strated so a user does not notices that he has new mail.
Happens on multiple PC'S, multpile times a week, but there is no pattern
in the occurences.
LinkWorks is started with lnxshell.
What can cause LinkWorks to behave like this ? Or is win 3.11 to
blame ?
Thanks,
Jan

| 2134.1 | Similar problem on Windows-NT 3.51 client | BACHUS::dbc624.bro.dec.com::POPPE | Fri Feb 21 1997 18:49 | 19 | |
Hi, I have a similar problem report from a customer with V3.0.8. When minimize Excel (from Office7), work on the LNX desk, and reactivate Excel, it is hidden behind LinkWorks. Their clients are Windows-NT 3.51. They have it consistently on all clients. I tried to reproduce it and got the following: Open an Excell document on the desk, minimize it, and open a second spreadsheet -> Excell does not come to the foreground. The same on a Windows-95 or Windows-NT 4.0 works correctly. I also tried the combination of TeamLinks with Excell on Win-NT3.51, but then the behaviour is correct. Is this a MicroSoft problem or a LinkWorks problem ? Or both ? Rgds, Marc | |||||

Hi,

> LinkWorks 3.0.8 (win 3.11) clients randomly "stays on top".
Colleque has been onside. Problem is clear now. Customer uses
the Automatic Viewer (default delay 1 sec).
When an object within a drawer/folder is opened (dubble click) and
the application (word,wp) is started faster than the viewer delay,
the LinkWorks desk comes on top and the application gets hidden.
Problem does not occur on the users desks.
Bug ?
Thanks,
Jan

Hi again,
Reproduced the problem @UTO with W16BIT.EXE (21-JUN-1996).
Tested with IJSAPL::DISK$LNX:[KITS.WIN308P.16BIT]W16ENGPN.EXE
(7-MAY-1997).
Works fine.
Cheers,
Jan
