Bring to front wont...

WHen ever I have ... say an IE window open maximized, occupying the entire screen, i can point to the bottom middle of my screen, and my object dock bar comes to the front no problem.

However, if I open SD Central, and maximize it, I can point to the bottom middle of my screen all day long and my dock NEVER comes back to the front...  ( it doesn't have to be maximized, it just has to cover the area I could normally point to in order to cause the DOC to come to the front )

Now to make this even stranger....

If I open SD Central maximized, bring a smaller IE window to the forground, and have that window cover the bottom middle of the screen, I can once again point to the bottom middle with the mouse and get the dock to pop to the front....

What gives?

( Vista if that matters... )

I would like to try this out. What version of Object Dock and IE are you using? Does this only happen with SDCentral? Have you tried it out with Impulse on your machine?

Also other basics. Video drivers up to date and are you running SP1 for Vista?

Video Driver is up to date, SP1 installed on vista yes. IE was just an example application where it does work as intended, but the version is 7.0.6001.1800. SDC is version 2.54.524 build 167. Impulse works just fine, I can hover over the bottom middle and the dock comes right on though. I"m not sure yet if it's just with SDC that this happens, I'll let you know if I find others.

I tired this out and couldn't get it to happen. Do you have any docklets installed that do not come with Object Dock?
