Copy,Delete,ect; Animation Problems

Friday, March 9, 2007 by Bioshock | Discussion: WindowBlinds

I am having problems with Windowblinds 5.50.021 Animation, before I updated this program I had no problem with anything and now the Animation comes not from the skin, it is the normal windows animation, how can I correct this problem or must I reinstall windowblinds again.  Sorry for my English.

What are the settings in the Animations dialog of WindowBlinds Configuration?

Also, installing WB 5.50.021 silently deleted several skins here, coincidentally the ones I was using for Toolbar Icons & Animations, so you might double check & be sure the skins you were using Animations from are still there (if that's how you had WB set up).

I had the same problem at first. Mysteriously about a week after updating my animtions started working again. Try a few different skins and give it a good test. It has been reported but I don't know where a fix or if it is even a problem for everyone. You could also try uninstalling....rebooting...reinstalling.

Also, installing WB 5.50.021 silently deleted several skins here, coincidentally the ones I was using for Toolbar Icons & Animations,


Was that related to the toolbar information for those icons being the default names?

I am just thinking that there are alot of skins that people don't change from the default Microsoft names and they get deleted when updating but I'm far from sure.

Hello Everybody! I have tried 5 different Skins and the problem is still the same,the settings in the Animations dialog of WindowBlinds Configuration is " Always use the Animations in the current skin" and the Animation files are still in the skin directory,the skin I am using is Galciv2,I guess I will have to reinstall and start again to see what happens. Thanks everybody for your advice. Dami49

Night Train -

I first tried rebuilding the list, but that didn't work. I then checked explorer & the skins folders were gone. I had backups, so I copied the skins folders back, relaunched WBConfig & the animations were back. I never did D/L & install the "Additional Skins."
