Another XP machine here, and I was alt tabbing between full screen Eve on lowest graphic setting eve on a Nvidia 5900 18" TFT 1280 x 1040 resolution screen to youtube during undock black screen...
If you really must know I was restarting a Simple Minds "She's a River" video 
Upon alt tabbing back I was undocked but when I right clicked attempting to warp to a bookmark all of my windows vanished and I was left with the cinema-style uninterrupted view. I could hear the options as I moved my mouse around though but decided it was best to redock which i had to do with mouse-over rosette in the end.
Great song though so it was worth it.  |

Workaround does not work.
Further investigation shows this occurs most to me during a session change when I alt-tab (to play poker in a google browser for examble).
Often tabbing back then clicking anthing such as open cargohold will then cause the windows to apparently vanish. I've often recovered this by clicking on an item from the overview (having to do this without a pointer, but by memory).
I believe to core issue is concerning the focus/re-focus when you alt-tab not updating correctly after/during a session change client update.
CCP Please can you advise us again when you expect to have this fixed as it is becoming very irritating if you run youtube videos etc while you play. |

Hi,
Thanks for the update, but just to confirm that as of today's patch 1.0.1 and client update, I am still observing this issue.
I can 100% certainly say that is occuring due to session changes while being alt-tabbed.
Reproduction steps:
1. XP machine running youtube/google chrome and eve.
2. Hit autopilot/dock while out in space then alt-tabe to youtube
3. After a couple minutes alt-tab back to Eve and try clicking on items in a merged hangar, or chat window - STUFF DISAPPEARS.
Please keep working on a fix. Thank you.  |

Another workaround would be to not alt-tab while undocking but this seems to be a dirty habit I picked up some time back to switch music or jergblerg on the forum.
Will try the resizing workaround shortly and let you know.
Ok literally just had the issue tabbing to type this post, while jumping a gate with the new effect of the jump button. Just to confirm resizing the window after a switch from full screen appears to have returned my windows (albeit due to shrinkage they overlap with the overview). |

Nice one, looking forward to this hitting TQ. Great that you kept us updated with progress.
Paradox / Alaska / Dev Pandya is my favourite drum and bass producers - can't wait to alt-tab and listen to Paradox on youtube, while testing out Paradox's fix in game! Haha I'm so funny....not. |

Looks like it is now fixed for me using TQ.
Great job Paradox for the fix, and also for the good communication. If I were to go to fanfest, I'd let you buy me a beer to say thankyou! |
