Salgoth Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Anybody know of a good program out there to give me some customization controls over the start screen's tiles (size, background color, caption, icon positioning, etc). My preference would be for something that would allow me to just have the tile border in a color of my choosing along with the program icon and then the rest of the tile transparent. I'm on Win 8.1U1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
articuno1au Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Unfortunately that's not possible. Microsoft haven't exposed the functionality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salgoth Posted April 29, 2014 Author Share Posted April 29, 2014 Unfortunately that's not possible. Microsoft haven't exposed the functionality. I've read a little about modifying manifest files to accomplish these things but I can't even beat Sudoku let alone mess around with coding something.
