Actually it could be a couple of different things. I had my doc configured auto hidden on the left to begin with but moved that to the bottom of my screen halfway through the tinkering. Also just before things started working I went into the Growl Preferences and manually set the starting position for each application, overriding the default. Theres a chance it could be either of those two things or a combination. I will take some time tomorrow night if possible to run through a few different scenarios and see if I can reproduce it. If it ends up being something that seems related to growl i'll post detailed steps to reproduce, otherwise i'll shoot a report over to the dropbox clan.
But right now im off to hit the sack, thanks again you were extremely helpful. On Thu, Nov 12, 2009 at 12:30 AM, Chris Forsythe <[email protected]> wrote: > Let's validate it.
