This happens both on 2.6.1 and 2.7 on Windows XP. I haven't tried it on
Mac yet. I have a background png that the player is on top of. The mask
png is on a different card that is not displayed.
I went with a deep mask so I could switch between two masks without the
window being closed and reopened, but now I get a lot of flashing when I
display a png over the background png or a player over a background png
(and the player doesn't respond to mouse clicks on the controller).
I went back to the one bit masks and now things work (but the window
disappears and reappears -- lock screen and unlock screen seems to have no
effect in this case).

I might have missed an answer to this but is the problem occurring with Rev
2.7 and if so on what platforms?
One thing that may or may not help... The image used as the mask for the
stack doesn't need to be visible. In fact, it doesn't need to be positioned
at the topLeft of the card. You might try hiding/repositioning the mask PNG
and see if that makes any difference. You might try setting the windowShape
to 0 and then reapplying the mask to see if it makes any difference. If you
have any card/stack level scripts or library scripts in use, you should try
making a test stack that includes only the mask PNG and a test image/player
to see if it behaves the same as your "real" stack. You might be able to
narrow down the source of the problem that way.
Hope this helps.
