I'm not sure, whether this issue is caused by patched themeui.dll. MM4 is the ONLY application with such graphic glitches. All other applications, even those using the titlebar to display menubars etc. work perfectly good. On the other hand, the patch does only enable me to use none signed alternate themes, as Microsoft is not able to provide some. I do not change any system resources etc.. Even with default windows aero theme, the issue exists.
I was unfortunatelly wrong with my last post. As soon as I disable the TAB-control, the menubar looks like in my first post again.
But I think I have an idea of the reason:
If you have a look on the following screenshot compared to the one of my last post, you can see, there is no space below the "Minimize/Maximize/Close" buttons here. On the other hand there seems to be a fixed space between the menubar and the bottom border of the titlebar. As the titlebar's height is too small, if the window is maximized and no TAB-controls are displayed, the menubar is aligned to e.g. -4px , which causes it to be cut off. Means, you need to ensure, the titlebar height of MM4 is equal under all circumstances. At the moment, the titlebar height seems to change in several situations.
If I have a look at my Opera browser's tiltebar, the space between the "Minimize/Maximize/Close" and the bottom border of the titlebar does not change, no matter the browser window is maximized or not.
