I think this sort of problem is more likely to occur if you have a fairly low resolution monitor or have your display driver set for a lower resolution than your display can show. It may be necessary to take GnuCash out of full screen mode to see what is behind it if Alt-Tab or Window-Tab doesn't get you there. Just out of curiosity, what is your display resolution?
