Skinning the titlebar forOffice 2007 on XP
Monday, November 20, 2006 by cybermessiah | Discussion: WindowBlinds
Hi guys.
I have just installed Office 2007 onto XP and it looks great except for one thing....the main titlebars wont skin.Im using WB v 5.01 and wondering why the main windows wont skin to the themes i use. Ive seen pictures of this app with the Aero look and heard that Office 2007 titlebar does make use of the glass effect in Vista.
Just wondering if I'm stuck with the default 3 titlebar skins on Xp or is there a way to get those titlbars to skin under Windowblinds, short of intalling Vista to enable this effect.
Thanx in advance for your help.
