Weird Problem with white blocks in VI's

I thought I'd throw this into the MachFive Forum since I've been experiencing it with MachFive 2 as well, but when I minimize my VI's (so far its happened to MachFive 2 and Plugsound Pro, I haven't tested other VI's yet) and maximize them again (from the dock) I'm getting white blocks where certain buttons/functions should be. For example, the window showing Part 2 is whited out hiding the volume, pan, sample name, mute button, etc. It seems to happen to different sections of the plug in, and doesn't white out the same spots every time. Is anyone else experiencing this? I'm running 10.4.11 and DP 5.13 and MachFive 2.02. The only thing I've really done to the OS since I started experiencing this was install a security update for my PPC that was posted on Apple's website recently.

Thanks for any suggestions or comments.

The problem seems to have disappeared. I think it might have been related to the dock magnification feature. I had turned it on recently because I liked the effect, but shortly afterwards I started noticing the white blocks. I have since turned off the magnification and haven't had the problem since then.

Thanks for the post. I'm sure someone will find that handy down the road!

BTW, I just hate magnification in the dock! :) OK, I don't actually "hate" it, but it's almost as annoying as my brother in law.

Yea, come to think of it, it was starting to get a little annoying when I would try to scroll at the bottom of DP and the icons started to pop up and get in the way. :P
