Looking for skins with a specific titlebar feature...
Thursday, July 31, 2008 by knownowow | Discussion: WindowBlinds
I've been using a very old skin (Corona) because it has the 'pin' feature that allows you to keep a window on top. Very useful at work. I'm looking for other skins that have this feature. Any suggestions? BTW: is Pin the correct way to refer to this function? and is there a good way to search for this on the site that I am missing?

If you mean pin as in set on top,that can be done in WB config.under settings."Action to take when r-clicking/double clicking titlebar".Roll-up can also be set there for skins w/o the button.
I'm not sure what it's called either, just the little push-pin thingy.

You can add a button very easily to any skin that will do what you want. It is called "Always on Top" in the button options using Skinstudio. I can explain how to do it if your willing but I won't go into it unless you want to try. Buttons can be added for XP and Vista. Which OS do you use? It is rather simple.

I wouldn't mind hearing how to create a roll up with SS6. I've made them with SS5 by adding code but I don't have the SS6 pro version so I would have to rely on the standard functions.

I'm in! I only have the free version of skin studio but it looks like I can do toolbar buttons with it. Thanks a bunch!

Not many skinners do this anymore.
