Windowblinds Roll up question

Weird Roll up action?

Tuesday, April 17, 2007 by Insidian | Discussion: Customization Software

OK, I have noticed that some skins dont roll up as they should. The bottom of the window sometimes does not roll up tight to the title bar. But, I have also noticed that if I load up several different blinds until I find one that does roll up correctly, some of the other blinds that did not roll up correctly before will start to roll up correctly. Has anyone else ran across this issue, and is there a fix for it? I have to go through this process repeatedly to get some of my favorite blinds to roll up properly. The funny thing is, it isnt always the same blind that rolls up correctly..sometimes I have to try alot of them before I find one that does it, even ones that did previously stop doing it and I have to load and load to find one that does. I am using the current version(5.5) with Windows Vista.

Its a per skin setting...each author makes that determination.Sometimes rollup size is left over from the previous skin...reload the skin and it will go to whatever the author has set.

Windowblinds main program has one feature setting every skins with roll-up functionality. Delve out on your own.

Yeah, I know that, but I wanted to know how to set how far the window rolls up.

Not the most helpful response.  I like encouraging people to self-discover, but I usually give a hint or two.

class act Nicholasworld.  

Also Per Pixel frames don't support roll up yet either so some updated skins may have lost functionality.

Do you have an example? I use roll-up a lot and hadn't noticed.

Have you tried adding a button to a per pixel frame?

No I use the right-click on the titlebar.

Windowblinds Configuration Menu > Override Default Settings > Titlebar Settings......
