Bug fixes update?Windowblinds latest beta.

Saturday, February 9, 2008 by I.R. Brainiac | Discussion: WindowBlinds

Just got the latest beta from SDC and in the history it showed that some taskbar grabber issues had been fixed.

Unfortunately Neutronium and Neutronium DM still have black around the translucent areas of the taskbar and grabber.This was a problem with my on board video(geforce 6100)and my new Geforce 8600 GT.(latest driver available)

Also,has the dialog background issue been fixed?...I cant tell because I edited the registry to force them to show here.

AND...what about a fix for the logoff screen prob...the cancel button still has blue around it.

Help me Obiwan keNeiloby.  

On XP if it helps or matters.

That photoshop prob with the disappearing frames on adjustment windows(like adjusting layer styles)is still there too.

As is the strange right click rollup behavior on document windows.

Out of these 3 issues I can confirm the logoff screen cancel button is fixed.YAy!

I cant confirm the dialog backgrounds working for others because I had already regedited mine...heres hoping for yay! finally!  

The taskbar and grabber issues...still there. ( 

Like the old song says...2 out of 3 aint bad.  

Good to see something getting fixed...and thanks Neil for the background effect tip on the other post.=1 was exactly what it needed.

I believe I have tracked down the taskbar grabber issue.  You told WB you were using taskbar transparency and then provided a totally solid taskbar image, so WB decided you had made an error.

Not sure about that...both the skins that are messing up used to be fine...both have translucent areas on both taskbar and grabber.(especially on vertical mode.Both Neutronium skins have this prob...but I will look into it.Thanks.  

Neutonium DM does have a horizontal taskbar without translucency...but thats the only part of those two...unchecking Trans made no difference...translucency was already unchecked.

Well...I tried turning off trans and translucent...I tried just turning off trans(like with logoff screen images)...I tried adding BackgroundEffect=1...nada.

I tried reimporting the images(many times)...no luck.I'm at a loss as to what to try next. (
