Black titlebar on maximized windows


Recommended Posts

I don't remember how anymore exactly, but with an UXTheme patch it iss possible. The taskbar stays transparant though, it only works for the windows.

Oh, btw.

Is it possible to have non-transparent window-titlebars but transparent other stuff (like alt-tab, superbar-previews etc).

Alt-tab aero peek is pretty useless without transparancy on the window-list and transparent titlebars makes the entire screen cluterred.

I havent done a theme for Win7 but I think if you edit the msstyle you will be able to do that. On Vista the taskbar, start menu, windows are transparent PNG images. You just create a nontranparent image and replace it. Win 7 msstyle is pretty close to Vista msstyle.

It bothered me at first that the titlebars were no longer black in 7, but to be honest I completely forgot about it until this thread reminded me.
