Dock positons change when exiting game

from Stardock Forums

Has anyone seen this problem:

I have 4 docks spread out evenly across the top edge of the screen.  Each dock has 4 tabs.  Each tab contains several Icons.

When I exit a game all 4 docks end up piled up on top of each other at the position of the left most dock.

The contents of the docks ( tabs & icons ) are OK.  And the dock configuration settings are unchanged.

I have Lock Dock Position checked for all docks.

I have submitted a support ticket but I wanted to see if anyone else had noticed this problem.

Same problem here, but it happens to any side of the screen, left, right top or bottem!

Unfortunately that happens a lot with games because a lot of them change the screen resolution.  No cure for this that I know of, other than trying to run the game at the exact same screen resolution that you run your PC at normally if possible.

I actually have gotten that same problem from games that are running the native resolution. Ones that I've played a few times before at full desktop resolution and seem to randomly change the position of the tabbed dock. It's not every time or every game, just periodically. It's really annoying.
