Mahapps.metro: Maximized Window is "Always on Top" when IgnoreTaskbarOnMaximize=True. Window remains "Always on Top" on Restore

Created on 10 Oct 2016  路  6Comments  路  Source: MahApps/MahApps.Metro

What steps will reproduce this issue?

  • Open Markdown Edit, press F9 and ensure IgnoreTaskbarOnMaximize is true.
  • Maximize MDE.
  • Notice that MDE is now "Always on Top" by trying to place another window over MDE.
  • Restore MDE to a normal Window
  • Notice that MDE is still "Always on Top"

If you repeat these steps with IgnoreTaskbarOnMaximize = false, the behavior is correct.

Expected outcome

Always on Top is a bit unexpected when Maximized but I can see why that might be necessary. Restoring the Window should remove the Always on Top behavior.

Environment

  • MahApps.Metro .3
  • Windows 10
  • Visual Studio 2015
  • .NET Framework 4.6+

@mike-ward I noticed this also by using MDE. I'll try to fix this possible as soon.

No worries. The workaround is easy enough.

@punker76 I have also noticed this. Though, restoring the windows does not take any effect.

@mike-ward What's the workaround?

@sleman set IgnoreTaskbarOnMaximize to false. This solved the problem for me as of now.

Unfortunately I need that setting or else taskbar shows when app is fullscreen.
