Thursday, June 18, 2009 by Huguitarro | Discussion: WindowBlinds
Hello, i have this issue, i installed WB6 after i reinstalled windows (video card problem), but now, when i install any ohter theme, my textboxes and some buttons appear very very small (I), and even if i zoom the page they look the same (II), and some buttons look that way too (III), but it's only when i put any other theme and even if i change it to another, but if i put back the windows XP oroginal one, they go back to the original form, and this only happends on IE8 and only on some text boxes and dome buttons... i already reinstalled IE8 and WB6 and i get the same result.... please help me!!

In IE8 click “Tools” | “Internet Options” | and choose the “Advanced” tab. or if IE is not open Right click on the desktop IE icon and click " Properties " then choose the “Advanced” tab
Scroll down one full scrolls worth and uncheck the “Enable visual styles on buttons and controls in webpages“
Click “OK” – it will take a few seconds, then your browser should display correctly. You should not have to close/reopen the browser for the change to take effect.
I had the problem on RC1 but I thought it was fixed on the final - as I can have it ticked now.

This issue should be addressed in the latest version of WindowBlinds. You can update it through Impulse.

My husband had the same on his pc. We uninstalled IE8 and did a reboot and it was back to normal again. But on my pc it is no problem with IE8. And I know others that are having just this problems while others dont.
Worth testing.
