Modeless screens on Windows (SOLVED!!!)

Hi Peter,

My suggestion was for a consistent title display irrespective of text size,
but the only consistent title available is blank (visually by using a space)
until a bug fix is implemented. On Windows, a modeless window has no title,
but I appreciate that this is iOS with different expectations so probably
best to ignore the idea!

Hi Hugh,
Not sure I'm understanding that.  I have a title for the stack but it's not
being displayed when it should so setting the title to space would have the
same effect I think?
