Just for my own sake, and the fact that I like this theme so much, I modified the blackbox theme iceqube by dreamer to use Opus Natural colors (which actually look a lot like neowin colors... hmm). Hope someone wants it :) :

*OULOOK 2003 & DREAMWEAVER MX 2004 BUG FIXED*

The problem with this bug is that the tab pane as the content section with a transparent color and that'a why you get those nasty weird text and colors on the already mentioned programs.

I toke some time to find the problem and try to fix for my self cuz I don't know what happen to b0se but I really wanted that fixed so I had to do it myself. It was easier than I thought because I just relazied that the problem had something to do with the tabs so here's how you can fix it (stylebuilder is required):

1) Import "ONatural.msstyles" to wherever you want in StyleBuilder

2) In the pars tree go to: name of the sub style\values\general\tab\ and click on "Pane"

3) Remove the properties "TRANSPARENT COLOR" and "TRANSPARENT"

4) Edit the file "TabPaneEdge.bmp" and paint he pink color with the color you want for background. I used: 237,235,233

5) Save the bitmap file

6) Compile and Apply

7) Done!

Hope this is usefull...

That's awesome, that did the trick.

Finally I can use this beautiful theme again!

Would you have some similar advices for Reluna?? I tried to find out what could be the pb (which looks the same) but the tabpaneedge bitmaps isn't transparent. Or maybe the transparent color is not pink in this case, but white? gota check the reluna thread

Edit: the pb in reluna is actually exactly the same, except the transparent color in this case is pure white (255,255,255).

Changing it to (254,254,253) for example - which should be the right color - did the trick - hurray!

gonna post that in the reluna thread, it might be interesting for people not wanting to wait for an update

Edited by zeflash
There is't actually any need to have StyleBuilder at all. All you need to do is edit the TabPaneEdge.bmp bitmap which can be done with a simple resource editor (there is no need to change the values at all).

I know but maybe for some people using a resource editor is unsafe or they don't know how to do it right and don't mess it up.

And besides I just told this way cuz removing that 2 propertyes, the theme file will be cleaner and not tiwht stuff that don't actually needs :)

Of course just paiting the bitmpat will do the trickb ecause the transparent color isn't there so there's nothing to become transparent...

Hi all,

Thanks for the bug fix, will add that to the update!

Still no Internet connection, and this Masters course invloves a damn lot of work, so I've had no chance to complete the updates yet. Will be back home for christmas so expect one then :)

Also, got an idea for a new theme that some people may like, will also knock up a beta of that when I get back.

Thanks for your patience,

Ross (b0se)

By the way, does anyone have any wallpaper(s) to go with this theme?

Hes only just released Opus Luna, give the guy a chance :p

I made 2 wallpapers for this theme sometime ago, nothing big but I think it suits the theme pretty well :)

    • When will the Photos app be updated to remember the window size and position when reopened? They addressed this issue in a 2024 version of the app (though I can't recall the build number). Unfortunately, after that specific version, the problem persists! Please prioritise this fix in your K2 schedule. Additionally, the Snipping Tool has lost the ability to capture the Windows Taskbar starting from the 2024 version!
    • Same, never saw it on Android or iOS. Guess only some people got it *shrugs*
    • Anthropic pulls Fable 5 and Mythos 5 after US export control order by Pradeep Viswanathan In April this year, Anthropic launched the Claude Mythos Preview frontier model with state-of-the-art cyber and coding capabilities for a select set of companies around the world. After preparing appropriate guardrails, early this week, Anthropic launched Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5, its most capable AI models. Claude Fable 5 is for general users and comes with strict safeguards, while Mythos 5 is designed with fewer safeguards for cybersecurity and biology use cases. Today, Anthropic abruptly suspended access to its Fable 5 and Mythos 5 AI models for all customers after receiving an export control directive from the US government. The company received the directive from the government today at 5:21 p.m. ET, and the received letter did not provide any details regarding the national security concern. Anthropic understands that the government became aware of a method to bypass, or “jailbreak,” Fable 5, which might be the reason behind the directive. The order was issued under national security authorities and requires the company to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether they are inside or outside the United States. The restriction also applies to foreign national employees working at Anthropic. As a result, the company has disabled both models for all customers to ensure compliance. Access to previous Anthropic models like Opus and Sonnet is not affected by this government order. The company highlighted that it had developed strong safeguards to reduce the possibility that Fable is misused for tasks related to cybersecurity. In fact, many developers are complaining that the safeguards are going overboard. Additionally, the company worked with the US government, the UK AISI, multiple private third-party organizations, and internal teams to red-team Fable’s safeguards for thousands of hours. Finally, Anthropic noted that no testers have yet been able to find a universal jailbreak on Fable 5. As expected, Anthropic disagrees that a narrow potential jailbreak should lead to the recall of a commercial model used by hundreds of millions of people. It warned that applying this standard across the AI industry could effectively halt new frontier model deployments. Anthropic concluded by mentioning that it is working to restore access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 as soon as possible and plans to share more details within the next 24 hours.
