The buttons look great but you need to incorporate a greyed out version of the buttons as well as a different button for the maximize button if its already maximized. Get creative with that. Furthermore the grey text on the caption no longer suits it. Please make it black. Great beta start though. (Y)

Yeah. Make it black, and remove the shadowing, it makes it look bad.

i told all of you it is impossible to make these buttons anyway else. so if you want the look you have to give up some functionality. I can make the buttons greyed out and change the restore button. The problem will ONLY arise if you USE the help button, otherwise i have made the theme so it doesn't matter what size the fonts are.

So should i continue to develop this? Because there is no way around this problem

Oh man, I can't believe it! He make all glyphs in captionbar to transparent and make buttons in captionbar background. What if some window has help button or doesn't have some buttons?

Can you please stop... stop... just.. shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! :pinch:

If you *really* don't care and wanna stop arguing with Andylogo, please just don't check this thread and make those comments. Totoally retarded

Oh, man. Why you guys keep me as argueing all time? I've just shocked that he use captionbar background for caption button. That will not have hover, clicked, etc with that trick and something that ANDYLOGO mentioned. what if there's just twp buttons and you click it on blank place. I just amazed in things he has done not argueing or flamming at all. Please stop that stupid because I and my friend've told what we have to already.

I have almost given up on the aero style caption buttons(not completely) as no matter how close i get there always seems to be a problem. I have been working on other parts of the theme during my spare time and have come up with:

1)Transparent StartButton

2)Aero Style Max, Min, Close Arrows

3)Glassy Window flag in start panel

An update will come later today if anyone likes the additions

i'm not sure how many other people want this but couldn't you have a thick start bar i don't really like thin ones. also, speaking of the start bar could you make it so that when you have more than one program open the different window tabs do not seem seperate and blend in together kind of like the aero theme. does nayone know what i mean?

Jesus christ... I just read the entire thread, and I feel like you guys stole 20 minutes of my life.

@ Andylogo: Great theme, but if you'd had the Aero caption buttons with a gradiented background, that'd have looked supreme.

@ Windows X: You... you... words don't even go to describe you. Firstly, you don't release your themes separately, but instead make people download a "Longhorn Transformation Pack" which gives about a 25% Longhorn look to someone's system. Secondly, your themes aren't even that good - ESPECIALLY the Keynote one, which you've done nothing but bitch about solidly for the last 15 pages. Your slate theme was okay, but it was nothing more than a straight rip from 4051...

Thirdly, because of the Slate rip, you have no right at all to bitch at Andy just because you THINK he ripped your theme. Regardless of whether he did or not, the theme looks completely different - more refined, less ugly - and that's what matters. All of your resources came from elsewhere - and you didn't obtain permission for them ANYWAY - so why does it matter if he extracts them with StyleBuilder?

Lastly, before any of you get any smart ideas about saying: "Well then don't use his theme if you think it's crap", I don't use his theme, and I don't plan on doing so.

@ Andylogo again: Nice work, and keep it up.

    • Grand Theft Auto VI pricing revealed alongside Ultimate Edition and pre-loading details

      By Nick H. · Posted

      I must admit, this is probably the only game at the moment where I can see that $80 price point being ok. The issue will be when other developers think they can get away with it with half of the work.
    • Google Wallet expands TSA PreCheck Touchless ID access to more travellers

      By Fiza Ali · Posted

      Google Wallet expands TSA PreCheck Touchless ID access to more travellers by Fiza Ali Google has announced that Google Wallet is becoming the first digital wallet to integrate with TSA PreCheck Touchless ID. It is a programme that lets eligible travellers move through participating airport security checkpoints using facial recognition instead of showing a physical ID or boarding pass. While the TSA PreCheck Touchless ID programme has been available for some time, using it hasn't always been straightforward. The programme currently operates at 65 airports across the US, but participation has largely depended on flying with a limited number of airlines. Travellers also had to upload passport information separately through participating carriers. Now, the tech giant's new integration is designed to remove some of those extra steps. With the update rolling out in the coming weeks, travellers with TSA PreCheck membership will be able to enrol in Touchless ID through Google Wallet and use the service with any of the 100 airlines participating in the programme. Rather than repeatedly submitting identification details, users can store a digital ID in Google Wallet and use it to streamline future trips. Setting up the feature is relatively straightforward as well. The process starts with users creating a digital ID in Google Wallet using their passport information. After checking in for a flight and saving a boarding pass to the app, eligible travellers will see a "Get started" option that directs them to the TSA enrolment process. Once users choose to share their ID pass and boarding pass information with the TSA for a specific trip, the agency will verify the enrolment. If approved, a TSA PreCheck Touchless ID indicator will appear on the boarding pass stored in Google Wallet, signalling that the traveller can use designated express Touchless ID lanes at participating airports. As privacy and security are likely to be key considerations for many travellers, Google says users must explicitly opt in before any information is shared with the TSA, and authentication is required through a device PIN, pattern, or biometric verification. The company also notes that digital IDs stored in Google Wallet remain encrypted and are kept on the user's device. For frequent flyers who already use TSA PreCheck, the new integration could remove a few more steps from the airport security process, making travel slightly faster and a little less cumbersome.

      Even though MS had to sunset the Windows Subsystem for Android, you can apparently use BlueStacks to run Android in Windows now. I haven't tested this yet, so if anyone has any feedback, I'd love to hear it.
