Oddity that pops up in Windowblinds when skining Firefox 1.5.09--> Now FF2

Tuesday, March 20, 2007 by 511b | Discussion: WindowBlinds

I have a bit of a problem. When I skin Firefox 1.5.09 I keep having issues with Windowblinds 5.1. The normal XP header bar that has the usual mini,maxi and close buttons disappears when I double click but the window stays up and open, the only way to fix it is to set to a different skin and reapply the blinds. I have tried this with several skins(both firefox and windowblinds) and get the same problems. I have the double click set to minimize to the task tray and I was wondering what was up with this, and if maybe I could get some help from the yokels who may know something before submitting a query to stardock support.

Thanks for the help in advance

some help from the yokels


This Yokel recommends an update to FF2. Then see if you still have a problem.

Hmm... That is a tad strange.

Would start by asking for your system specs and the info displayed in the System Information page of WindowBlinds Configuration dialog (be aware some of the text may not be displayed depending on your res - be sure to left-click the cursor somewhere within the text you see and use the down arrow key to be sure you get to the bottom, then swipe "up" to copy the text, then paste it in a reply here).
