Another cosmetic improvement proposal for version 2.6b7

Hallo Wilhelm,

Yes, and most of the time the title bar is offscreen, big fun!

Good idea :-)


Shameless plug:
Did you try my new "2lz3" for Metacard?
A nice replacement for the "Tools2 palette,
just like my old "heim2", but much more improved :-)

It does exactly that, and much more...

Get it here:

And here (will work for *Nix, too):
http://www.major-k.de/staxx/WIN2lz3.zip

The difference is just a tiny cosmetic one...
