FYI. with V2 the unit info box can show up on a users desktop when the game is minimised. To reproduce pick zoom level 1 have a unit in the info box (it doesn't need to be selected) have a maximised window and minimise it then move cursor to screen edge.

Don't expect anything to be done about but thought you should know it can happen, as I don't suppose this would have been found in normal testing. Win 7

Well what do you know. Also with W8.1

I always keep press the "U" key to have the black block on the right side of the screen, this does not reproduce then, only when "U" is not enabled.

I never realised you can drag the info box around the screen either.

That is possible with 1.04 as well, but of course with 2.00 it is possible to minimize the game now. Interestingly enough, as you mention, the info box is not visible until you move the cursor to that corner!

Investigating...

Interesting. I'll put investigating a fix for this on the to-do list, but nowhere near the top.
