Wish list for Windowblinds
Thursday, November 5, 2009 by k10w3 | Discussion: WindowBlinds
I really wish the Stardock would make a portable version of Windowblinds -- one that would work through a flash drive. The reason I would like this feature is so that when I create skins, I could test them out on different operating systems, and different computers by going to the library or trying them out on a friend or relative's computer without actually having to install something on their machine.
Is there any possibility that this could ever happen, or is this one of my wishes, that falls into the same category as "weight loss chocolate" and a monkey that craps money.

Gawd, that was funny....but in truth? I think you had a truly excellent idea! especially the weight loss chocolate! ![]()
Too bad about the impossible.

I just wish you could save your own settings for a skin as one of the "styles" for that skin. Tweaking the transparency and coloration each time you switch back to a favorite theme is cumbersome and time consuming.
And I thought they made sheep that crapped money in Korea... guess you'll have to compromise.

Transparency and colouring is stored on a per skin basis in WB7.

I wish the borders alignment was the same as in the Glyph alignment.

I really want a program that will do the following.. windowsblinds or fx might be the place to do it. I've sent the idea to stardock before.. over a year ago.. they said they liked it.. but I don't know if they ever did it... I haven't seen it.....maybe they did but hid the feature somewhere. I can't find any shareware to do this little function.
Problem:
My desktop gets cluttered with windows I'm not using.
Solution:
I want windows that haven't had focus in NN number of minutes to automatically be minimized. Bonus -- let me override it for certain windows...

Wishlist...sounds pretty good!
I´m running blinds as well on xp and am wondering why nobody likes to work things out like themeguru with his newest xp theme dark glass plus.
Though I´m unalble to install it...

I'm suprised nobody has yet stated the obvious!
A portable version would bring with it a sudden large increase in users who have NOT paid for the program.
Financially, I don't think this would be an option for any Company looking to earn money on a Software product.

WB has to be installed to run, so no.
