<7057>Photo Viewer's "help" icon turns to an XP era icon when hovered over

Submitted by .Chris on April 16, 2009 to Aesthetics, Bug, Icons

Problem: Found this bug while in photo viewer. When you hover over the "help" icon, you are presented with a XP era help icon. The icon is vista/7 era when you don't hover over, but once you hover it changes to the XP era. Strange thing is once you click on it, it returns to the vista/7 era icon for second, goes back to the XP era and then back to the vista/7 era.

To reproduce:

- Right click on a photo
- Select open with
- Windows photo viewer
- Hover over the help icon. You should than see it switch to an XP era icon
- Click on the help icon and you should see it switch back to vista/7 era, back to XP era and then back to the vista/7 era

Solution: Fix the bug so the same icon is shown and perhaps the background overlay can show like in explorer with that help icon,

Severity: Low

Impact: Low

Status: Not fixed
