Could someone with the new build also tell me if when you change themes if it still messes up the font highlighting under desktop icons?

Also is the Wallpaper changer fixed in the new build?

Both looks ok to me. Not sure about the problem with the font highlightning, but everything looks fine.

If you could change the theme to the Untied States theme then right click and select rename on a deskto icon. Can you see the font? The highlight color should be dark blue.

Thanks

The transition\fade effect when you change wallpaper is new and pretty cool!

Yea, just noticed myself. Nice addon

Looks to be some issues still. Not on all themes though.

Thanks X-bite

Also if you could check open a window like say IE Maximized then open WMP 12 and from the task bar see if it open on top of the IE window?

There is a bug in build 7000 where WMP 12 seem to almost always open behind other windpws.

It was available in build 7000. Anything new or added to transition effects ?? :)

Only when using the wallpaper shuffler in build 7000 if I remember correctly. Now it does that when you select a wallpapper manually also.

Opens in front now. Tried it several times with different windows maximized.

Can someone check if in build 7022 there is still error with permissions... For example in Beta sometimes i get error when saving files from any program:

"F:\Users\Username\Desktop\Filename.psd

You don't have permission to modify files in this network location

Contact the administrator per permission to make these changes"

After this error file is created but with 0 Bytes.

I have instaled win xp and win 7.

Hehe, sorry was playing around with the new build :)

Seems WMP was updated in this build:

The album art is bigger and the "Library" button moved to the top right of the now playing window. To get "Show List" you have to right click also. The song title/artists info now cycles which is nice but i rather it the way it was before where the name of the song is always avaialable in bigger bold fonts. Not sure if i like those but i guess.

You can remove more Windows Features:

There you can remove Windows Media Center and DVD Maker and even WMP 12!

Looks like the Now Playing fonts aren't incredibly blurry anymore. Larger album art, now that's a plus. (Y)

Someone at the mainpage comments mentioned that there is a new animation when "moving things around explorer"... Can someone look into it?

Yes it's true. If you have like for example: mutiple IE tabs open, the animation looks more smoother. I can't really explain it anymore than that. To add to the WMP, of course the icon & the buttons are different now.

I'm not sure if it's new or not, but if you hover over "All Programs" for about 3 seconds, it will automatically send you there, same thing works when you want to go "Back".

Paint also looks different

Setup was much faster using an ISO mounting program, in this case, i used PowerISO.

Overall performance is better :)

That's all i've noticed so far, i will let you guys know if i find more out!

I don't think that's what he was asking, correct me if I'm wrong backdrifter, but I'm assuming it has something to do with Windows Explorer... not Internet Explorer?

Might just be a result of my JPG compression :) But yeah larger album art, i submit feedback about that already. AMG (All Music Guide) needs to start releasing at least 300 x 300 now instead of the 200 x 200 they currently do/did. That's why that one up there looks kinda fuzzy too.

Oh and Gaius - leave my music alone. LOL I was downloading some old music that i remembered (Dru Hill - Beauty) and found some new ones at the sametime. I was sampling that's why that's a weird playlist. I barely listen to the radio so i don't even know what's hot these days.

This topic is now closed to further replies.

    • I really wonder if this has to do with the built in VPN or "private DNS" of browsers that trip up legal requirements like cookie consent and Cloudflare (to avoid all the botnet attacks we get). And BTW some botnets still manage to get past Cloudflare, we are constantly having to tweak it to block malicious traffic that ultimately cause a DDoS.
    • CPPC states can also be messed around with in most UEFI settings but aren't as robust as the ones that the Windows Scheduler can provide! Make sure you look into what your motherboard also has before customizing for the Windows Scheduler.
    • My issue is I can't access the forum on mobile if the site is set to Desktop mode on Vivaldi because it can't complete the Cloud flare am I a bot check! I know this is a Vivaldi issues as it has started happening on all cloud flare check sites, it's so annoying, I've reported it but no fix yet.
