Dear Marc,
thanks for telling the reason of the effect I have observed.

Your answer means to me that I did not open the window in a wrong way
but it shows the same behaviour than "normal BB windows". The effect
was caused by my experiments with very small window widths and does
not show up in every day life.

So I feel happy with this situation :-)

Thanks and best regards,
Rainer
