Wednesday, January 16, 2008 by OFFICA WoD | Discussion: WindowBlinds
Hi guys,
well, im 95% finished for my first blind (last one was joint effort with Unclerob) and ive come to a wall.
I have a couple of things I JUST CANT GET RIGHT!
1. Progress bar wont stretch, just tiles itself.
2. On subskin, "log off / turn off computer" buttons have dissapeared.
3. On subskin, "mouse-over" on start menu places is just a solid colour. (instead of thin line like the normal skin)
I think thats it, i got the rest "down" lol....
Now, i have spent AGES trying to sort these 3 out, and ive now given up, just dont know what else to do.
So, is anyone willing to take this and fix these for me? (and also test run)
Yours, pulling hair out,
Offi

Yayh!
The name was originally 40 characters, so i changed to 30 and it works!
Cool, many thx for that.
And it also worked for the mouse over problem.
But i still have problem with the progress bar not being stretched, only tiled.
oh, and the "log-off" window (same as the shut down window) always shows as windows blue colour, even though in skin studio it is skinned.
Blind is ready after these!
Cheers I.R. great help bro

Sometimes thats the same problem...rename the file.Also...I think you have to have both perpixel and non perpixel skinned or it may not show.

That includes the Skin name and file name I believe.Happens a lot when creating substyles...images that used to show suddenly disappear because the name gets too long.
