Ah, the color was changed though :s

Is this what you mean?

The LE4 close button (and also minimize and restore buttons) had a "closing animation" where the button would tilt if you pressed it. It would be cool to have this again in LE5 with LE5's slightly adjusted colours.

Yes. I've been waiting for FOOOD to reply to a request to use his icons in the shellstyle :/

Just in case he didn't receive the PM I'll resend it (as he has been online today, but hasn't replied).

EDIT: I've just revised FOOOD's policy on using his icons, I believe I can use them without asking permission, I'll release the second version of the shellstyle soon, which will use some of FOOOD's icons. This probably explains why FOOOD didn't reply, if he has a problem with them then I'll remove them :)

Sprocket, you should read FOOOD's policy again, he doesn't allow any usage of his work without his permission. Remove the shellstyle from deviantART and wait for his answer,please.

Hi em3,

i found an little error on on taskbar in LE5 and LE4.

I love your work since LE3 and use it every day, but since LE4, and also in LE5 it has an iconsize-error in taskbar on my thinkpad.

I attach an image that describes my problem. If i use LE3, the icon fit exactly.

Hope you can fix that in LE 5.0.4.

Thank you for your great work.

best regards

!llum!nat! :rolleyes:

^I think I know what the problem is and I'll try to fix it in the next update. In the next update I also plan to include alternate seletion colors since a lot of people requested it. The only question is that since there only are 3 spots in the Font List where I intend to add this option I must chose to add compact startmenu or not to the alt. colors. Or if someone know how to add more stuff to the font list, let me know.

THANKS EM3 for your nice support :laugh:

Well, you could always add it as a different Colour Scheme altogether, because you can have as many of those as you like. (I think) As for the font sizes, not too sure about that. However, I remember you putting in Compact Start Menu's and Alt. Start Buttons as different Colour Schemes in your previous versions. Maybe thats the "workaround" to the problem.

@!llum!nat!: Sorry, don't now how to fix the issue with the battery icon. The values I suspected was identical on LE3 and LE5.

That sounds bad.

Here are two pictures of LE3, one of them in thin and the another in normal style.

Perhaps it helps you, if you see it self.

!llum!nat! :huh:

Since I don't have a laptop to test this bug on, you could try fix it yourself perhaps. Use ResEdit (from tgtsoft), open the le5.msstyles (located in windows/resources/themes/le5). Check the TEXTFILE folder and open the file you use. Scroll down to [TaskBar.BackgroundBottom] and change the SizingMargins values to 0, 0, 2, 2. I think that might work. But if I would change these values in the official version people who use multirow taskbars might get upset. Then again, these values might not fix the battery icon anyway. :p

Btw. I saw your mail earlier. It was in the spam folder, therefor I haven't noticed it until now. :p

    • I agree, but that's the popular online opinion about them, so I followed it. I do think they have their point, no matter how combative they sound most of the time.
    • M$ can bring whatever the hell it wants, and then guess what's not installed in my Mac.
    • Windows 11's big performance boost is finally available for all by Taras Buria Over the last few months, Microsoft has been very busy fixing Windows 11 with features that users have been asking the company for a long time. An upgraded Start menu, the ability to change the taskbar position, new Windows Update features, and plenty more. However, not all changes are visible on the surface. Some exciting upgrades happened under the hood, and one of those upgrades is now available to all Windows 11 users. The so-called "Low Latency Profile" is a special performance mode that aims to make Windows 11 snappier and more responsive. It boosts the processor clock speed to its maximum for a brief moment when rendering user interface elements or launching apps. As such, apps launch faster, and things like the Start menu or quick settings appear on the screen faster, although some are sceptical about it. Microsoft is not sharing many details about the new profile. The official release notes do not even mention it, with Microsoft only saying that the update "accelerates app launch and core shell experiences such as Start menu, Search, and Action Center." Also, you may need to enable it manually, as new features are rolling out gradually. Here is how to do it: Download ViVeTool from GitHub and unpack wherever convenient. Navigate to the folder containing the ViveTool files with the CD command. For example, if you have placed ViveTool in C:\Vive, type CD C:\Vive. Type vivetool /enable /id:58989092 and press Enter. Restart your computer. After restarting your computer, launch Task Manager or any other hardware-monitoring software and check the processor clocks when opening the Start menu, Action Center, and more. Your processor should spike to its highest possible speed and then return to lower clocks. In addition to Low Latency Mode, the June 2026 Patch Tuesday update delivers additional features, such as multi-camera mode for apps (several apps can use a single camera stream), shared Bluetooth audio, improved Task Manager, and more.
    • I agree, especially with newer versions of MS Office supporting ODF documents, there isn't even a compatibility argument to be made. It should default to ODF on a clean install, with admin configurable options to make MS Office the default if that is desired.
    • Are they on crack at M$? Surely living on an alternative reality? A good dump of mine would run faster down the toilet if I did not flush it. But still looks better than this pile of slop. By the way, did they also comment on what's the next "functionality added"? Maybe you can improve it if you add even more stuff to this vomitware.
