Description Eric Moffatt CLA 2011-12-02 15:09:53 EST 
Found this while working on the Intro stuff; If you have more than one perspective open and fire up with Intro then (while it *is* 'maximized' you just get a blank area where the perspective stack was.

This is because the maximize behavior is to minimize all stacks *in the same perspective*. if there's only one perspective open then it works because the CleanupAddon correctly detects that there are no more 'visible' stacks in the perspective so it goes invisible itself and then the perspective *stack* also goes invisible. If there is more than one open perspective then the perspective stack will *not* be made invisible because there are still visible elements in it (the other perspective(s)).

To repro: 

Have more than one perspective open
open Cheat Sheets
maximize its stack

Seems to be fixed by the new 'minimize perspective stack' code...
