Re: WDSc V5.1.2 Splash Screen lingers on startup

I've found this problem with a few windows apps to be honest.  If you are 
multitasking and kick off say a setup pgm (I know, you should be not 
running anything when setupping up applications, but hey who has the time) 
you go back and look, and see the main screen, but somewhere there is a 
dialog box waiting to be answered and you can't get to it.  Plus, there's 
no icon in the task bar to show it.  CTRL ALT DELETE shows it though.

[WDSCI-L] WDSc V5.1.2 Splash Screen lingers on startup






Has anyone experienced a problem with the WDSc 5.1.2 splash/welcome screen
hiding their iSeries logon dialog? I start WDSc and after a minute of
waiting for the splash screen to disappear, I realize that WDSc is waiting
for me to answer the popup dialog but that it is invisible. 

The way I get around this is to use one of the Cascade/Tile Windows 
options,
and sure enough, there is the hidden user-id and password dialog. Once I
answer the dialog, things go on as expected and WDSC perspectives appear. 
Is
there a setting to control this or make the splash screen after a time
limit? Is it a bug or feature?

Overall, I am pleased with V5.1.2 ater using it for several weeks. Faster
than prior version, no significant bugs in CL, RPG or IFS file editing.
Gradually getting there on verify vs. compile. Love the Outline, once I
found it. 

Also, I continue to be unable to use the Install/Update perspective 
without
a getting the "Problem Occurred - network error". Unable to access the
various web sites. I have I assume this is because of our firewall. I have
set the I/U preference page to proxy and port  and also tried both default
browser or embedded. Any work arounds for difficult firewalls?
