Taskbar peek view not accurate in Win 7

Hi,

I am running Windows 7 Pro 64-bit. One thing that somewhat annoys me is that the peek view of taskbar is not accurate, for taskbar items of the same group. For example, if I have several chrome windows open, and when I point to one of the chrome task icon in the taskbar, it will show the thumbnail view of all the windows. However, if you look closely, you will find the thumbnail views are not accurate: mostly they show identical content, while in fact they should have shown the respective different contents.

Same thing happens for other applications. For example, I run cygwin X windows, and it also cannot show exact content of each window if more than one X window is open.

This might be a minor problem and might be that the OS does not want to spend resources to get a snapshot of every window of the same group. However, it does seem to be annoying since it gets confusing if you hover on an item and see the same thumbnail views of actually different windows.

Anyone else has this problem?

 

I just opened about ten different windows in Firefox(just to check it out) and the peek view of the taskbar shows exactly what's in every window.

 

Fastest way to preview all your crap - win-tab and fly through everything. Taskbar peek is slow as heck and useless on taskbars that are autohidden on the left like mine is.
