Default [BUG] Tile Flashfxp with other desktop windows

Windows XP sp1: having only flashfxp window open and using "tile windows" from the contextual menu of the tray bar, flashfxp window will be aligned occuping only half screen.

In the same login session I tried the same operation with explorer and it aligns occuping all of the screen.

It seems that flashfxp uses 2 windows, one of which is hidden.

Borland Delphi applications use a hidden window. I guess WinXP counts it as a window. I don't see any possible way to avoid this problem, however perhaps someone knows?

If you can get the hidden window handle, you could try to use Win32 api to set it to "minimized". In fact, minimized windows are excluded from tiling.

Look at this:

SetWindowPlacement

The window can't be minimized, The window state matches the main form, the hidden window makes up the taskbar entry. if it's state is incorrect the main window behavior would malfunction.
