Windows 7 RC issue

Fences disappear when Windows 7 chaanges the wallpaper

Today I decided to give Microsoft Windows 7's timed wallpaper change a try. What I found is that if you wait until the wallpaper changes, fences disappear but do not get painted again when the wallpaper changes. Icons are not affected they still show, but the fence title and background does not.

It's not a big problem since maximizing any window or placing them over the fences area will cause them to redraw.

I find that if I chage theme in W7 RC-1 Fences do not work right if hidden double clicking on desk top does not work, I have to log off then log on and everything works fine

Recent update is causing problems under Windows 7, if I select any aero theme then fences disappear and double clicking on the desktop causes erratic behaviours (icons are not shown, or they are shown for a little time just to disappear). Selecting any non aero theme solves the problem.
