[rel] VistaXP WindowBlinds

[manifesto]

anyone seen this prob or knows a solution?

Open WB5, go to "System Information" and mark "Enable if you have corrupted titlebar buttons & text backgrounds"

Would it be possible for you to, in the next version, change font color of the start menu items in the coloured part of the start menu when you mouse over there? As of now, it's very hard to read

Example: Look at the text that I mouse-overed in this picture:

5. In filemenu goto Tools > WindowBlinds > Import shell style file

Check the thread please, there has been quite a few posts with some weird fixes :)

Yes I tried it yesterday...I had issues using VistaXP and didn't find it since I take my skins on WinCustomize. After that I found VistaXP again, I forgot to change my wallpaper...

But anyway, after having played with it for a while, I think both skins are good. VistaXP is better overall (Start menu mainly) but Arrow has some neat effects that VistaXP misses (Start Button glowing)

I admit it looks a bit...provocating to post a wallpaper from a competing skin on a thread about a skin...

Sorry! :rolleyes:

this may be a n00b question...but i like this glass effect, but i want it to me alittle more smokey, or blurry, for me, its hard to read whats on the title bar when there are icons behind it, so how, in skin studio do i make the title, instead of completly clear, have alittle gaussian blur?

As far as I know it's not possible :(

Is it possible to make it a bit more opaque, like the one in iflex?

[savourymonkey]

You can open the targas themselves by unpacking the theme. Then edit them to look how you would like.

Wow, amazing. I love the new stuff especially the scrollbar because it has much better contrast now.

Your the man.

Now, is there any way to get the start menu logoff/shut down buttons actually working? :)

[RevoDS]

Everything works except the per-pixel shut down/log off dialogs (I still get the old ones with the Vista logo not working for me...)

Otherwise, thanks for this update!

Edit: I think I found the first real bug with it.

When I move a window behind the taskbar, it shows behind and moves if I move the window...but the background seems to be mixed up with the window.
