Currently, gui2bitmat() is not built to handle this case. It's more 
complex (but possible) to handle it in java.
I mainly wished to propose without more delay an easy solution to this 
long standing issue.

But the case where the gui window is maximized is normally supported and 
has been tested
It's a special case, because then some window borders are removed by the 
window manager.

This should not occur, but it may, in the default without-border mode. 
In this mode,
the height of the status bar must be determined, and the required 
graphical tests
take a bit of time (1-5 s depending on the speed and load of the computer).
If in this meantime the gui gets on the back, yes we then get this effect.
This will be improved in the next version.
