WB 6.02.025 Font Issue
Friday, February 8, 2008 by JeffBDVS | Discussion: WindowBlinds
I have opened a ticket with Stardock support.
Latest update to WB 6.02.025 messes up the menu item fonts in the Diamond skin. The font gets a very "mac-ish" appearance, and very long menu items that also have a keyboard shortcut have the shortcut text overlapping the item text.
Example:
Open Adobe After Effects CS3
Go to File>Open Recent Projects
"D:\My Documents\My Videos\Projects\After Effects\After Effects CS3\pI_Tutorial_Source.aep Ctrl+Alt+Shift+P"
In this example, the letters "Ctrl" will overlap the letters "aep". Shorter names won't do this.
I reverted to WB 6.01 (Build 40) using the archive that was created when I updated to 6.02.025, and the issue has gone away. The included WB SysInfo is for the archived version.
(Side issue: after restoring the archive, SDC still shows the installed version as 6.02.025)
WB Info:
