Hi!
I frequently use the Multilingual dictionary called "Dic Michaelis" (AppDB:
http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=3200&sAllBugs),
which is the only electronic english to portuguese dictionary I could possibly
find, for any OS (except some very poor online translators).

I have it installed on Ubuntu 6.06 with wine 0.9.53~winehq0~ubuntu~6.06-1, and
it works perfectly; probably the program was installed with some previous wine
version, however still runs smoothly with wine 0.9.53 .

The problem is, I'm actually using latest Ubuntu (7.10) with the most recent
wine (version 0.9.54~winehq0~ubuntu~7.10-1) but the following problems occur: 

 * There are now actually two "programs" in the taskbar; the first one contains
                 the main body of the dictionary; the second, when clicked,
displays the search word field;

 * Whenever I switch from english/portuguese to portuguese/english and
vice-versa,  the search box disappears and I need to select it again in the
taskbar;

 * When the application is minimized, or another application such as firefox is
chosen, the main body minimizes, but the search box remains over all the other
programs I have open i.e. browser etc.; So the only solution I have at the time
is closing the dictionary application every time after searching for the
translation; this can be quite annoying.

 * Everytime I switch between applications I have to click again in the second
"program" in the taskbar so I can enter the search word. Because of the nature
of the activity (browsing foreign language, using translator) this happens
quite frequently.

SUMMARY: this issue is not a priority, however it did not happened in prior
versions of wine (except when minimizing the search box remained in top of
everything else) and I assume it happens with other applications also.

I'm attaching a photo so you can see what I'm talking about :)

THANK YOU AND I REALLY APPRECIATE YOUR WORK!
