per pixel window frames

Sunday, January 6, 2008 by jazzymjr | Discussion: SkinStudio Help

I finally decided to try to make per pixel window borders. I got all the images done, including the titlebar buttons, loaded into SKS 5, and then I lost all the skinning to the menubar and toolbar...they came up with the classic color I had set in the classic colors section. (Fortunately, I had saved my blind before attemtping this, so I didn't lose everything.) I already had the regular window frame borders done. I have no clue what I did wrong!

I'm running WB 6 and SKS 5.

Any ideas?

Thanks, butch....I think what I will do is see how you did the per pixel thing and see if i can duplicate it. I learn best from seeing something in place and then trying to duplicate the same result.


Happy to help, you can view them on D.A.. Best of luck with your windowblind..

Butch, I wound up not using any of your per pixel borders. What I finally did was somehow figured it out...don't have a clue how I did that, though....lol. The hardest part was the maximized window top....had to make another image for that. Everything is now in order. The only things that aren't skinned in per pixel are the menubar, menubar buttons, and the midi buttons. I got the text color on my buttons straightened out too...I think my problem with them was skinner error, not SKS or WB.

when i use some perpixel skins the ..focus area for each button is offset maybe 10 pixels so sometimes i press x instead of _ and the window closes instead of mimimies.
