Firstly. It doesn't work when you yank the mouse top right and click. They've put padding so you have to yank the mouse top-right then bring it to the left by a few pixels before you can actually click it.

Any way to fix this one?


Secondly, the hover highlight is very intermittent. Sometimes I hover over the X and it stays "lit" even when I move the mouse away. When I move the mouse to the top right of the screen by hovering through the X button it stays lit but doesn't click. But when I move the mouse to the top right through the little gap on the right of the X button it doesn't light up.
 
Time to pull out the trusty nuke-disc once again. :cool: Don't have time for faffing around, let alone the client.:p

The X button does work as you would expect. The padding is just cosmetic the button goes right to the edge.

Its a bit like the orb on the old Windows 7 taskbar. The cursor could be in the extreme lower left corner and still activate the menu even though it wasn't technically over the button.
 
dammit, i lost all my tabs when I successfully tested that the X worked on my PC

*facepalm* :D

Works fine here on Windows Server 2012 w' workstation modifications. (Essentially Windows 8 with server stuff)
