3 things I need help with Skinstudio

Friday, February 1, 2008 by promaster12 | Discussion: WindowBlinds

Hey thanks for viewing this topic I appreciate all help/advice,

1:

How do I add progress bars to the hard drive telling me how much space is used?

pic: like this -


Or does anyone know a theme that has that kind of bar?


2: How do I turn the log off/shutdown buttons to something like -



Or does anyone know of a theme that has fully working search part and log off/shutdown buttons? Most themes that have that style, have bugs in that part of the theme..

3 and finally:

How do I turn the download/copy bar into something like -



The parts circled in red are especially what I wanted because most themes have that kind of style but don't have stuff like "more information" and stuff - or does anyone know of a wb theme that has that exact dl/copy window?

Do you mean for XP? Because I'm pretty sure those are all just Vista features, not necessarily WB controlled stuff.

I was just about to sat the same thing.

do you run XP or Vista?

you CAN skin question 2 in XP, but it will be non-useable (just a bmp picture looking like a search bar)

I don't believe you'll can modify XP to run some of the Vista features you show here but well the best place to find this kind of soft would be here: www.crystalxp.net
I recommand using third party skinning's softwares with in mind that can mess up your system. (so before using softwares, and especially thoses who change the core of the OS, make backups)

Those aren't skinnable elements...they're actual features of the OS itself (except for number 2, that can be done, but I believe it requires a patch to remove the text, can't remember).
