HELP!! needed from SkinStudio users!!

New skin doesn't and won't show Maximized PP window frame.

Sunday, February 19, 2006 by scorpio-logic | Discussion: WindowBlinds

Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this? I have renamed the skin, uninstalled and re-installed both WB and SS. Problem started when I changed Active Horizontal Text Alignment from OS Default to Center. SS told me that the preview would not be painted correctly when I tried to change setting back to default.

You have to place a new image into your skin folder. Must be a .tga. then you can reassign the image to the maximum caption.
I have run into this. If you import a new image the window frame top changes also. and vice versa. It happens with the luna default template all the time to me.

Thanks for the reply, NT.

It's not the image that has caused my problem. But, yes, this does happen. Becomes frustrating when you get a nice frame and then it changes when you import it. Took me a few tries to get this one right.

When I have the theme applied, and maximize a window, the topframe is completely tranparent, not there. No buttons, no title, no image. Bad thing is that the image I am using has no transparency. I have saved it as a .tga with a different name than the Translucent Top Frame.

This might be one that you have to see to understand what is happening. If you would like to see what I have, I can send you the skin in question. It is not complete, and this problem is one that is keeping me from finishing. This is a killer-kick-ass kinda skin and I would like to give others a chance at it.

I'll send a copy to your email if you respond positively.

Thanks again for your response. BTW, nicely done on Mullett and Foggy!
