Taskbar grouping problems

[Draciron Smith]

Hadn't realized this went back on list. I've had problems sending
screen shots to the list in the past. So I sent them offlist. I'll
send you a copy off list.

Your tip is a sufficient workaround that is solves my problem but not
the design flaw in the location of the tooltips.  Probably not worth
putting any time into it however. Thanks though, hadn't realized the
tooltips could be turned on or off specificially with the task
manager.

The second problem is with persistent group lists.  When I click on a
group the menu often doesn't go away even if I click on something
else. Sometimes it will but sometimes until I choose one of the
grouped items such as a Kwrite window if I clicked on Kwrite then it
will not go away.
