Hmm. Can you give any more info about what led up to it?
Were there windows on that workspace some time before, or
had it never had anything on it? If it had apps, what were
they? Were they closed, or just moved to another workspace?
If closed, how?
And are you using click-to-focus or sloppy focus?
On a related note:
At some point in the next day I'm going to put up a 'known
issues' page off of
http://www.math.psu.edu/raven/blackbox.html
Since it's quite possible that I lost some e-mails during
my recent move to a new development system, I'd appreciate
it if those of you who've reported problems to me in the
last week could stop by there over the weekend and check to
see that I've got your problem listed there it.
It's bug whoopin' time.
