Corel get resized

CorelDRAW X3 and CorelPhotoPaint X3 windows get smaller every time a menu option is selected. I'm currently using WindowBlinds 5.1, didn't happen with WB 5.01. So far no other software is affected.

I downloaded from a link included with my serial numbers inside an email sent from stardock sales:

By the way, I read another post recommending to uninstall WB, download stardock central and then download WB from SDCentral. I just did that, however CorelDRAW X3 window is still being resized to a smaller size each time a menu option is selected.

I'm including the new system information report.

files look fine
SDC has been the best way for me, plus it will tell you if there is a new release later and the archiving function works great for easy rollback or moving to a laptop.

did a search for shrink = nada
did a search for resiz = WWW Link concerning PhotsShop but post said it was fixed on the sept update

you may want to put a ticket in

I have tried to reproduce this with 5.1 and the trial of CorelDraw X3, but I am unable to do so.

What other applications do you have running at the time? Please include apps like WindowFX, Nvidia nview etc in your list.

It seems that it depends on the skin. I've had the same issue with Azenis 2, now I'm using G-Pod 2 and Corel X3 works fine. Maybe this little info can help.

No other software is running like WindowFX, nview, etc. My current skin is Noire.

I just downloaded Windowblinds 5.49[b].020 thru Stardock central, rebooted and the shrinking windows problem still persists.

I just downloaded version 5.49.[B]021 thru Stardock central, rebooted and the shrinking windows problem seems to have gone away for CorelDRAW X3 and Corel PhotoPaint, which were the only two programs I had a problem with. Thanks Stardock.
