The start button from LE3 is bigger than the one in LE4, you will need to reduce the size of the start button to fit in LE4. You will also need an image editor that can do 32bit images for transparency, otherwise you corners of your start button will show up white. Hope this helps for you.

I'm planing one more update and after that I'm done with this theme. The update will include updated toolbar hover/click/pressed images. Also those in the save as /open windows.

YES! i can't wait till final release, it's been only 3 days and it has almost surpassed Kol's Vista thread in replies, i havent checked, but im assuming in downloads as well...you trully are one of the elite if not better...considering you beat an elite, i'll go with better :)

Black shellstyle almost complete... I don't know how to recognize the "search shellstyle" gradient in the UIFILE (and withall, 0001 or 0002?).

Are you on about the background gradient, then look for this part in UIFILE 0001:

background: gradient(argb(0,8,39,122), argb(0,72,103,186)

The colours are Hex, the hex values are as follows: the first is alpha, then red, green, blue.

So, 0,8,38,122 Hex (Ignoring the first Alpha '0'):

Red - 8

Green - 38

Blue - 122

This is inputted twice to get a gradient, the other being (from my shellstyle):

argb(0,72,103,186)

The best way to get these codes is from a paint program, I use Pant shop pro, then use the colour dropper tool or similar.

I hope that helps.

Thank you, I know the part about the colours... what I still don't find is that part of code (I tried to search in the UIFile but I didn't find it) :\

Great Community effort on this thread...As the discussions remained calm, and mature in nature.

@Boz, very-very nice Stefanka styled shellstyle.dll to match both Blue & Black colours!

I was initially discussing this with em3, and we all know that making shellstyles is a time-consuming effort, so when I saw his reply to 'please post up a link' for these top-style shellstyles, I immediately smiled!

:yes: :cool: ;)

I'm sure LE4's gained more popularity at a much faster rate than Watercolor ever could have. It has even had support from the author with encouragement! There's almost no comparison of quality and depth of the themes. Sure, Watercolor is simple, if I wanted simple I'd go to Classic. If you want beauty, I'd sure as hell hit up LE4!

^ I'm sure I would go for Classic if I wanted a simple one... But LE4 is simply AMAZING :yes:

Watercolor 4.3 Kicks Kuna ELement 4's ass.

Really? Those clear salmon light colors? Those lazy-made shellstyles? Those simple-squared-easy-to-do buttons?

I don't think so.

Clean styles can turn up to be good, but there's a line that divides the clean and the way-too-much-clean, and Watercolor crossed that line IMO.

    • I think they still believe it but are realizing that those statements created massive backlash and impacted adoption. I personally think AI, if used regularly will give you back about 30% of your time if you are an “information” worker.
    • I don't have a problem with adverts, I not fond of the tracking. My main problem is when you have to keep clicking close to remove them before you can see anything On the site. The ones that keep updating and moving stuff around as they are different sizes are as bad. Neowin is not too bad with Adverts, but ones that keeps updating or have animation can be distracting when reading something, like the one showing now, about how much should I walk to lose weight. I realise sites need adverts to survive, but stop changing them every few seconds.
    • SQL Server Management Studio 22.7 brings "What's New" page, T-SQL formatting, and lots more by Usama Jawad SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) is the tool of choice for most developers working with SQL infrastructure and data. Microsoft recently released SSMS version 22, and in the past few months, it has been steadily releasing point upgrades to refine the integrated development environment (IDE). Now, it has released SSMS version 22.7.0 with a bunch of new features and interfaces. For starters, SSMS 22.7 has netted a native "What's New" page, which highlights the top features and bug fixes present in the latest release. However, Microsoft says that this page won't annoy you much as it will only show up each time you update SSMS, and once you dismiss it, it won't be shown again to you until the next release. Secondly, Microsoft has finally introduced T-SQL formatting inside SSMS. The good thing about this is that it does not require installing any additional components, as it is built into the native experience. All you have to do is right-click the query editor window and select Format SQL from the context menu. Additionally, you also have several customization options at your disposal, such as the ability to automatically place semicolons at the end of a statement, split clauses across multiple lines, and more. However, this capability is only in preview for now. Additionally, Microsoft has introduced a preview of Agent Mode, which allows the AI model to automatically perform complex workflows on your behalf. Furthermore, Agent Mode will operate in read-only mode by default, so that you don't have to worry about the AI model accidentally deleting your data. On a related note, Microsoft is finally allowing users to configure the execution context of GitHub Copilot. This can be controlled per database using the CONSTITUTION.md file, where you specify the user details for the agentic executor. You can find details about this and additional bugfixes in Microsoft's blog post here.
    • I only use 3 extensions in Zen. I don't need or want a ton of stuff in my browser i don't use.
    • I prefer to choose my own ad bockers, not what the browser seems to think I need. i remember the days when a browser was just that, now they try and be everything and add stuff in that not all of us want. I bet Brave is full of AI rubbish? I will stick with Zen, not perfect, but better than others.
