Summary 07745: MAME Gameplay position is offset when Windows taskbar is moved to top of screen
Description When the Windows 10 taskbar is moved from the bottom of the screen to the top of the screen, Mame renders the screen space incorrectly, offsetting down the hight of the taskbar. This is true when MAME is is in full screen (auto) mode.
Steps To Reproduce 1. Unlock and move the Windows Taskbar from the bottom of the screen, to the top of the screen.
2. Launch Mame 0.224
3. Note the screen and UI is offset vertically. Launch a game and see the offset is carried onto the game screen position.

can confirm with:
mame64.exe -video bgfx -nowindow

Taskbar is not erased. The bug also happens when taskbar is positioned at the left edge.
*edit* Someone on the chat said it also happens with -video gdi. I tried and can confirm.

I was the one who added the code to make it avoid placing the window under the taskbar with -window -nomax. Is it somehow incorrectly applying the offset when running fullscreen as well? Perhaps it has something to do with the way bgfx uses a borderless window rather than fullscreen exclusive mode.

Should be addressed by b1b3b92b4b7ba3e144e00fc62e234b293f646c4c. It didn’t break any other use cases in a quick set of tests.
