    Hi all,

    I'm experiencing an issue when running Windows 7 in coherence. When maximising windows applications it randomly shows just the background colour of the application and doesn't redraw all or some of the elements contained within. If I restore down everything is redrawn properly. It's much worse on an extended monitor screen.

    Example (on extended monitor + coherence):

    1. Start Chrome windows version
    2. You should see your homepage (depending on how you've configured Chrome) e.g. www.google.com.au
    3. Drag Chrome onto extended monitor
    4. Click Maximise
    5. Navigate to another page e.g. http://www.parallels.com
    6. After doing the above I see 1 sec flicker, and nothing changes! I still see my homepage.
    7. If I click on restore down then suddenly I see the site I navigated to: http://www.parallels.com

    I'm getting the same thing as you when in Coherence mode running Win7 guest on Mountain Lion on an rMBP. Here's a screenshot of the issue: http://d.pr/i/tZKr

    Good to know I'm not the only one! Now if only someone could provide a solution.
