When I switch between windows using CTRL+Tab a panel listing files is shown. Sometimes it happens that this panel does not disappear after I made a choice and grey rectangular area is left on top of the IDE. This does not happen after fresh restart of the IDE but after I was using IDE for a while - usually next day after I resumed my laptop it happens very soon in the day. Once the problem happens the grey window stays forever and restart of the IDE is necessary. I just noticed that if I click the IDE's menu bar then window goes away - it will get hidden by topmost IDE frame. I'm attaching few screenshots for illustration.

I just updated to 7.2 RC1 and this happened again. Once it happens you have to restart IDE otherwise anytime you tab between windows you end up with grey rectangle.

The step are the same as before - while switching between files sometimes the grey window stays behind. I will keep an eye on it and report if it happens frequently or if I know how to reproduce it.
