I tried this out and wasn't able to reproduce the problem so either the issue has already been addressed by a different fix (I don't know of any issues specific to the behavior your describing so I cannot say for sure) or there may be more to reproducing it. Have you tried using the latest hotfix version to see if you still get the issue?
I have version 8.2.20082.1002.
I just realised that I do not reproduce it in vista basic, just in vista aero.
It's also OK in XP.
Hope it helps.
I'm actually running on Vista Aero albeit with a later version of 8.2 and I'm not seeing that issue so I suspect it is already addressed. I would recommend getting the latest hotfix from support if you don't have it already. I'll try to test with the version you mentioned just to ensure that I do get the problem and that its not related to something else - dpi, 64bit vs 32bit, etc.
I was able to reproduce it in the release version and first hotfix but it seems that it was subsequently addressed. You should contact the support group so you can be notified when the hotfix is available.
