Frame Disappearing on Clicking the ListViewItem

Hello,
I have a simple WPF app, which has a grid with 2 rows,
Row 1 has a frame pointing to http://www.microsoft.com
Row 2 has a listview with couple of Listviewitems
I have also set the Window Property ResizeMode="NoResize" and
WindowStyle="None"

When I click on the Listviewitem, the upper frame goes transparent.

This happens even if I replace <frame> with webbrowser control hosted by
WindowsFormsHost.

Is this a WPF bug?, is there a workaround. Below is the Xaml. Please help
Regards
Srini


<Window x:Class="TransparentFrame.Window1"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
Title="TransparentFrame" Height="600" Width="300"
ResizeMode="NoResize"
WindowStyle="None"
>
<Grid>
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
<RowDefinition Height="0.80*"/>
<RowDefinition Height="0.20*"/>
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<Frame Grid.Row="0" Source="http://www.microsoft.com"
NavigationUIVisibility="Hidden"/>
<ListView Grid.Row="1">
<ListViewItem>Test1</ListViewItem>
<ListViewItem>Test2</ListViewItem>
</ListView>
</Grid>
</Window>

I was not able to repro this.

What hardware are you running on (video card), and what version of WPF do
you have? What OS are you running?

Its a regular desktop(x86), my current configuration is Windows Vista 5600,
Windows SDK 5536, with Aero turned On.

But I have been seeing this issue since Windows Vista 5456 and later(till
5600), Windows SDK 5456 and later, .Net Runtime 3.0 June CTP and later. The
video card on my box is X600 Radeon, but have seen this issue with other
Video Cards too.

The common recipe to repro the problem is that it should be Windows Vista
with aero turned on(should see glass everywhere) and the two Window
Properties should be set
ResizeMode="NoResize"
WindowStyle="None"

To elaborate, in Visual studio 2005 create a new WinFX Windows Application

Go to window.xaml. Replace <Grid></Grid> with

<StackPanel>
<Frame Source="http://www.microsoft.com" Height="200"
NavigationUIVisibility="Hidden"/>
<Button>test</Button>
</StackPanel>

Add these to properties to Window element
ResizeMode="NoResize"
WindowStyle="None"
and F5. And hover over the button, the frame will disappear.
