Flashing Remote Desktop Manager [tab], minimize/maximize/X all flashing in sync.

avatar

All of a sudden, my RDM icon on my taskbar is flashing orange, and the title bar has changed to Remote Desktop Manager [entry-name] and it's flashing, as well as the X and minimize and maximize buttons in the top right. WTH? I don't even know what to look for. I've looked under tools and view, there's no messages window. I've alt-tabbed through a bunch of windows, nothing is disconnected, and those are usually modal. Can't click on it, does nothing. Nothing under Help or Touble Shooting. Nothing down by the anchor in the bottom right.

Too many windows open to close it right now, but it's very in-your-face for something that won't tell you what it is.

Hello,
I don't think that something we do on purpose. Could you try to give us more clue on how to reproduce this? It seems like a Windows behavior for something we do in RDM that trigger the taskbar flashing.

Hello,

Have you by any chance linked RDM to the Workspace browser extension? We found this could be the cause, but want to know if we should dig deeper.

I wasn't able to reproduce it. it's done it a couple times, although not after the last couple updates, so it might've been some bug that got squashed as part of something else. I should've closed this, and forgot about it.

Thanks for checking.
