hi - impressed with Aero but have found a few inconsistancies when minimising windows: When you minimise a windows then hover over the minimised item in the task bar it only shows a miniture version of the window as when of it was minimised. The task switcher and the 3d task switcher _do_ update the content though. Are there plans to at least force an update to the minature version in the task bar when hovering over it?

minimize - hover feature
On mine when I hover over the button in taskbar the image I get is real time. i.e. if I have movie playing in that IE window, that movie is playing in the "miniature" as well.
So far, other apps seem to be the same except 3d apps, which dont seem to like being minimized at all.

I think what the OP is referring to is the fact that if you MINIMIZE the window and then hover over it in the task bar, it does NOT update. As you mentioned it will update while the window is displayed. I think this should be bugged, if not already.

exactly - when minimised it should at least update the image - dynamically updating if you hover would be a bonus like in Flip3d etc.
