which buttons is the shadow text a problem?

it's supposed to give a glow type effect, and i can't drop that from the theme. And about the start menu with the stars, it just didn't fit to me.. but i'll see if i can do something with it.

View the attachment. The Cancel button's text glow is so bright it's quite difficult to notice the button text, at least on my (rather bright) monitor.

I also noticed another bug: the titlebar text on maximized windows doesn't change at all when focussing/unfocussing a window. Besides that.. it has no shadow effect, compared to non maximized windows.

ok i'll tone the brightness down a bit on the glow effect.. but hear me out here, it glows on mouseover, now when you mouseover a button, do you then magically not know what that button is anymore, even though you put your mouse over the "CANCEL" button...lol

i'll fix it, but you make it sound like you just can't read what the cancel button is, even though you just put your mouse over it..lol

anyway... i'll fix the titlebar text bug also.

Ahaha! You went with the name I suggested :)

One thing I noticed, when you maximize a window the titlebar is blue for a split second. Might want to look into that :)

And other than the big gap between the start button and my quick launch icons, this theme is rockin.

Alright. Thanks for your time in looking after these issues. ;)

I love it man!!, few things:

when a program is flashing on the taskbar its hard to notice, maybe make it flash red.. if you know what am on about.

the only part i dislike, or like the least is the taskbar colour, i think the vs may need another colour somewhere.. like blue.

just an idea.

heres a pic with my own shellstyle:

Excellent theme and i love all the colours any chance of a shellstyle like this one coming with the final version giving us a choice of which to use.

here is an updated visual..

updated caption bars (removed stars) made active/inactive noticeable.

Added alternative shellstyle

Added folder images

lightened the tabs and buttons to make viewing black text easier.

Lowered the glow effect on some text.

changed scrollbars to match the style more.

    • Microsoft brings Planner Agent to all Microsoft 365 Copilot users by Ivan Jenic Image: Microsoft Microsoft has announced that Planner Agent in Microsoft 365 Copilot is now generally available to all users with a Microsoft 365 Copilot license. Planner Agent is the latest addition in the string of AI features that Microsoft is implementing across virtually all of its products. The agent lets you manage tasks through natural language prompts directly inside Microsoft 365 Copilot. You can create and update tasks, check priorities, and get insights about current entries without leaving the chat interface. The general availability release comes with a handful of new additions on top of what was available during the initial rollout. A new plan picker lets you search and filter your plans by name, then update task names, statuses, due dates, or priorities through the agent. There's also a goals bucket now, which lets you group tasks under specific goals. This builds on the Goals view, a feature that was introduced as part of the broader Planner refresh that rolled out earlier. Image: Microsoft | Planner Agent in Microsoft 365 Copilot All AI-generated plans and tasks are created in draft mode by default, so you can review and approve changes before anything goes through. This is actually a thoughtful safety feature, because trusting AI to handle all your tasks without a human in the loop is usually a recipe for disaster. Having tasks initially saved as drafts is the best possible middle ground. Microsoft also says that not all tasks are executed equally. Simple tasks get processed quickly, while more complex ones, like building a plan from a Word, Excel, or PowerPoint file, are handed to a more capable model. Microsoft says this approach delivers the best performance, but it could also help with usage management, as you won't have to waste tokens on performing simple tasks. Planner Agent is available now across Teams, Loop, SharePoint, and other Microsoft 365 apps for anyone on a Microsoft 365 Copilot subscription.
    • To be clear I'm anti trump, the bigger point is why review this game at all?
    • Trillion dollar Microsoft has to reduce spending by hurting more people. Good job Microsoft. Good Job Asha.
    • That's a shame. The big Xbox reset when Phil and Sarah left and then Asha came on and brought a new team of executives, and all the layoffs last year and saying that the ABK merger wouldn't result in redundancies I am surprised they are calling for yet another reset and yet more layoffs.
