Anyone else having problems with the mouseover on "Log off' and "shutdown"? Also, in the screenshot it says "Turn off computer". On my computer it says "shut down"... This must be why.

Edit: I have the classic logon screen. So it must be a bug?

:(

Update: Altered Start menu to allow for the text length changing. Unfortunately this means losing the 'buttons' on the lower pane and replacing them with icons.

The download on dA is still the old version...

Anyway: Thanks for this very, very good visual style. I really appreciate it!

The text will read "Turn off computer" if you don't log into a domain. I assume you're buggering around with your work computer? I do it, too. So far IT hasn't gotten mad at me... :D

Text reads "shut down" for a classic logon no matter what, since I don't have a domain at home. Maybe because i turned fast user switch off

I AM using this VS at work though, and it confuses the heck out of IT folks logging in remotely (like one did today to troubleshoot an issue I had). They're like, uh u got Vista on here!!

I hate working on generic Windows tho! :o

Thx hornett for the update.

That is why the traditional start button is there! ;)

As for the max button, not sure why that is. Thanks for the report. Which app is that?

App is Photoshop. Those windows are the toolbar type windows. The max doesnt show properly and also it's obvious in the black one... when focus is taken away from the windows, the X button still looks like it would on a focussed window. There probably just needs to be new resources for the toolbar type windows for the Max and the X buttons... i am not that knowledgeable :|

You could probably just make those look like the styles pane in word 2k7

Those are the size 6 glyphs for the buttons. You shift the normal sized buttons and that glyph moves as well. Only the small close button is independent. Most likely you need to undo shifting of your buttons, the glyph will return to its place.

And nice work :)

    • So what is it, "Some exciting upgrades happened under the hood, and one of those upgrades is now available to all Windows 11 users." or "Also, you may need to enable it manually, as new features are rolling out gradually. Here is how to do it:" We keep hearing these are rolling out but they never seem to show up, we have force them on with ViVetool. Getting a bit tired of it.
    • Seems very lazy, so basically drain more battery power on laptops/tablets if this is turned on.
    • Edifier's popular R1280Ts bookshelf speaker can be a nice upgrade for your PC desktop audio by Sayan Sen Yesterday we covered a very nice discount on Sony's high-resolution SS-CS5M2 speakers, which are currently on sale for just $178. It packs the rather rare super tweeter that offers an additional level of clarity and "airy"-ness which a tweeter cannot provide. It's a passive speaker though which means it will require external amplification, which will cost extra. Let's say though that you have a budget of under $150 but still want a decent-sounding speaker that's active. The Edifier 1280Ts can help in this regard, as the unit is currently at a decent price of $130 (purchase link under the specs table down below). While you will not get deep sub-bass from the 1280Ts, you should get clearer vocals and highs like cymbals than a cheaper satellite-based 2.1 system. Obviously the soundstage and imaging will also improve due to the better reproduction of highs. As mentioned above, the Edifier R1280Ts is active and so does not need a separate amplifier, as it's a powered system with its own amplification. A great thing about this model is that you can add a separate active subwoofer to it too using the "sub out" option, which essentially acts like an LFE. This way, you can add in the missing deep bass. The technical specifications of the Edifier R1280Ts are given in the table below: Specification Value Total Output Power 42W RMS (21W + 21W) Driver Units 4-inch mid-range/bass driver + 0.5-inch silk diaphragm treble driver Frequency Response 52Hz – 20kHz Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) ≥85dBA Input Sensitivity Line In1: R/L: 500±50mV Line In2: R/L: 700±50mV Inputs Dual RCA inputs Outputs Sub Out port for external subwoofer Get it at the link below: Edifier R1280Ts Powered Bookshelf Speakers - 2.0 Stereo Active Near Field Monitors with Subwoofer Line Out: $129.99 (Sold by Edifier Online Store, Shipped by Amazon US) This Amazon deal is US-specific and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • Appreciate the focus on UI performance, but this is going the wrong way. Instead of optimizing performance, coding to lower latency, etc. this is just throwing horsepower. This is lazy.
