Minimized applications and screenshots

Hi all. I just started having a "problem" with OD Plus today. When I start an application, I see its full-size icon in my running applications dock. If I minimize the application, I get a screenshot icon. All this is fine, but when I then restore/maximize the application the icon in the dock remains a screenshot instead of reverting back to the full-size icon. This is a new bhavior as far as I can tell. It's not a big deal, but I was just wondering if there is something I can do to fix this. I am running Windows XP and have not made any recent changes to my system.

Are you currently running SP1 for Vista? I would like to try to get this to replicate on my end. Does it happen with all programs or just certain ones?

As I mentioned, I'm running XP (SP3). This happens with all programs so far.

I have discovered that if I minimize the program using the minimize button in the title bar I get the screenshot dock icon. If I then click on that dock icon to restore, the full-size icon returns.

The problem seems to be limited to minimizing the program by clicking on the dock icon. If I do this and then click it again to restore, the icon stays as the screenshot. Hope that's clear.

I have a similar issue. Win XP, latest ObjectDock Plus. When I minimize a window, I get the screenshot thumbnail, but at some point it will revert to just an icon. I cannot say for sure when or why it does this. How can I get the 'screenshot thumbnails' to stick?

I have the same issue as sypolog. I can make it revert by dragging the mouse over the program icon or the screenshot itself. In addition one screenshot will always revert to the icon if you have several tasks that are all minimized and close one.
