Hello Bret,
I do not know, how the capture process works internally, but if I had to
guess I would say, that it stores the current window configuration, when
a capture template is invoked that is not of type funcion. This
configuration is restored after finishing or canceling the capture
process. I would say, when using the function template type, you might
have to roll your own window-configuration management, if that is the
behaviour you want.
Regards,
Alex
