According to that link, it was fixed in RC1. It "shouldn't" be an issue in the retail version?

lol, thats why I said it as a question. Issues like this is why I am now using a custom GUI system. I am tired of the bugs and incompatibilities that Windows has with its own API & GUI.

Out of curiosity, what custom gui system do you use?

GetWindowRect_() works fine for me on Vista Ultimate. How is it returning incorrect values for you? Can you give a little example code?
It was fixed for retail and seems to work fine.
("I am tired of the bugs and incompatibilities that Windows has with its own API & GUI."
LoL,,,,,like no other OS in the world has bugs and incompatabilitites. To which ones are you refering? But its correct to say this question is better left to another thread at another time. Anyway, in context with the thread topic, If GetWindowRect_() works fine for me and others but not for some, where is the bug or incompatability at and how do you classify it so globally as a bug and incompatability for everyone?

It works fine in some cases, but NOT all. I can give you an example later.
