Windowblind not showing in my blind configuration program.
Tuesday, May 2, 2006 by Blondie66 | Discussion: WindowBlinds
Hi, I wonder if anyone can assist me in a little problem in having...
I've installed many Windowblinds over the last few months and had no problem whatsoever, but when i try to install 'BXSilver' by starone, for some reason it isnt displaying in my Windowblind configuration program properly..
it displays in the preview window but along the bottom where it shows a preview of the taskbar for the skin it is showing as blank.
I wondered if there was a particular way to install it or something.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
Kerry.

yes, it applys just fine, but it just doesnt preview in the little bottom section of the config program....the bit where it gives you a little slideshow of the blinds that are installed.

That is most likely because the skin does not include a nonperpixel Titlebar graphic - WBConfig has always pulled that little preview from the Titlebar graphic (top border) and I assume they haven't changed it. Unless there is a "normal" top border graphic included, WBConfig doesn't "see" it (probably points to it in a way that doesn't include an "if not, then" statement). More & more of the skins being uploaded have perpixel borders only, so WBConfig probably needs an update to account for this.
