I think it has something to do with the separators for the start panel menu's. The ones that you see when you hover over, as an example, "All Programs".

That wasn't it either. Although the font there were both black and I was able to change the muse over to white but it didn/t help the other menus from both showing up black.

I meant the "All Program" menu from XP, it has a skinned menu which is being used in the menus from Firefox in Vista. Also, those shutdown buttons need to be skinned as well.

I'm not at home right now so I can't check it out in XP now. My laptop only has Vista. I'll see about porting in your shutdown buttons.

Those Shutdown buttons are another Vista bug. Here's the screenshot of them in Skinstudio but obviously they aren't render that way in the finished WB as the previous shot showed.

That's weird :s There has to be a way to have them skinned, because I've seen Vista WB skins that had their own buttons there. Sorry, but I cant allow permission for a WB skin if those aren't skinned on Vista.

If I remember correctly, those can't be changed with a visual style, you have to resource-edit the system DLL containing the images.

You can still release the skin, but you'll have to package it with a pre-modified DLL file so the user can swap it out.

No problem! I just went and looked at some of the VS for Vista and all of the Shutdown buttons are render the same way. Another reason why I like XP better. :)

@tmr250z: I can't add more substyles to this theme. Well I can but I'm not going to because then all the other subtyles should also have the toolbar option. I'll think about the black toolbar buttons. I've tried them already but IMO they should have a color. I'll ask my beta testers.

That's ok, lol, now that I am using the blue toolbar buttons on WE Black, I'm really starting to prefer them over the black ones. :D

@StarLion: Then how does VStyler do it with all of his WB skins?

Oh, you were talking about WindowBlinds skins! Sorry, I thought we were talking about native Windows Vista MSStyles (where a resource edit is the only way to acomplish the change).

WindowBlinds can do it all on its own :)

    • Dell, HP PCs ran into endless reboot, BitLocker recovery loops but Windows 11 isn't to blame

      By eiffel_g · Posted

      Funny, but I didn't had the issue. All PC's at work are Dell and we had the culprit version of Support Assist for about 2 weeks until we got the new one. No problem at all. And for checking you can also use Dell Command Update, no need to search in windows settings. Just check the Upgrade History.

    • Apple's AI smart glasses and Vision headset plans reportedly delayed, again

      By AnalystDan · Posted

      Apple are scared of their customers! They have built a brand over the years of "it just works out of the box", but that slows innovation. Samsung's master stroke was the Galaxy Ultra: "Let's cram everything into one handset, make it so stupid only real nerds will love it, some of the features will work, some won't, but the audience will have such a high tolerance they won't care". Apple has no such device and so they are constantly worrying these days about the fallout of creating a new experience that customers might not like. I know it is often cited the reason they don't build a touchscreen Mac Book is they don't want to cannibalise the the iPad market, but I think it's equally cold feet after the criticism Microsoft receive trying to make a touch compatible desktop OS

      So, an article that has nothing to do with Windows 11, still gets Windows 11 in the title and a build number as the picture? Dell have a buggy build of Support Assist HP have UEFI settings that need unlocking for the secureboot cert upgrade to take place.
