first of all great great visual style.the only that always bothering me like any other is that when a visual style like this puts the system tasks at the top is that you cannot see all the tasks or properties of the selected folder or file.you have to stretch the window just to see what other choices are left the right side.maybe if someone can fix this or make it a bit compact that all system task can be seen without maximizing the windows.wouldnt be that much be user friendly.but thats only my opinion.

Thanks for the kind comments guys, style XP toolbar, sorry but I never made one before...

To apply the style, you got to have stylexp installed or have a patched uxtheme.dll

And at last, for those who requested the icons of Longhorn, euh, excuse me, Vista, grab them here along with other system files.

Cheers.

great work jemaho! keep up the good work.....this visual style is amazing!

I think looks very realistic and shows great potential to be the best...

If you are planning on another update, may I recommend doing a fix in the "My pictures folder"...When there are sub folders in a picture folder, the viewage can be potentially a little annoying due to the scrolling. If i have time, I will upload a picture to show you as this description is a little vague.

well done once again

I would like to ask if anyone else has this problem.

I am using StyleXP to install v1.4 of this theme. What I notice is a problem when resizing windows related ot the "file, edit, view" section and the title bar.

When I open the window, it looks solid, as if they are one piece. However, when I resize an explorer window, I start to see lines and discolourations so tha tthe title bar and menu bar look different.

Great work,using it right now

found some bugs for v 1.4 ,hope you'll fix'em :)

first : this is too big,can you make it more thiner?,if not,how can i do it?

Keep up the good work!

I have attached an image of the distortion I am talking about. You will notice that the caption bar and the menu bar is no longer solid. When you resize it, it seems as if the lines that would normally separate the caption (title) bar and menu bar creates a problem.

I have noticed this any several skins that have a solid caption and menu bar that have a gradient.

Is there any way I can use the different colours of the style on the thin/compact menu style.

It has the ornage colour and I want to use the green from the normal style.

Fantastic theme though Jemaho.

I don't know if this has been dealt with or not, but I've applied all that was inside the 1.4 pack. I don't know how to explain this properly please excuse the vaugeness but highlighted icons don't display properly. Here's an example.

Is this normal? Did I do something wrong?

BTW love the style!! Also all the text on the top of the windows is SUPER Fuzzy is it the theme itself? or just my configuration?

    • It is silly there is no simple way to check whether this profile has been activated. CFRs are normal, but trying to even hide the fact if it's on / off seems silly, especially for something so user-facing. Surely Microsoft is "proud" of their engineering efforts on this one and ought to display it somwhere in the GUI.
    • Many Linux distros are not known for excellent battery life, so I'm not sure that is the best example. A more apt example may be Apple, but Apple's CPUs are simply far more efficient than Intel & AMD at single-threaded tasks like these, so "boosting" is not as power-hungry and less heat-inducing. Not to mention Apple will hardly engage P-cores for basic UI tasks; they use a pretty complicated QoS scheme to only activate P-cores for more serious workloads like HTML / JS execution or decompression or application launch. Microsoft is (smartly) doing it for launch, but also for UI tasks, which is the more nonsensical part: why ... do Windows 11's UIs need modern CPUs to boost? It should load so quickly that there's not even time for the CPU to boost.
    • I've not seen any controlled testing and, judging by Microsoft's mentality, within a year, they'll have added so much more bloat, it'll undo any perceptible latency benefit and we'll have boosted the CPU clocks for nothing.
    • It depends: heat soak is a thing. Initially on cold boot-up, the heatsinks & heatpipes are at ambient temp. After heatsinks & heatpipes warm up (through normal usage), they don't immediately cool to ambient temp when the load goes away. So their baseline is higher and the trigger point for fans is much less stress. Add a few more CPU spikes → it's too hot to stay at the same fan RPM → fans get triggered to start up up much sooner / get triggered to ramp much more quickly.
    • Can LibreOffice just shut up and worry about themselves and stop comparing themselves? Do we see Microsoft complaining about euro office?
