Monday, July 9, 2001 by JcRabbit | Discussion: WinCustomize News

What's new in NextSTART 2.70?

* Lots of new skinning abilities, such as dynamic width bitmapped menus, icon and text offsets and inactive selection bar. Most new themes will take advantage of the new capabilities, so this is definitely a must have release!

* Easy backup and restore of NextSTART settings through Preferences.

* The endcap of a menu can now remain visible when a menu is rolled up (optional).

* More hot key combinations.

* Hotspots are no longer disabled when the Preferences window is open.

* Fixed multi-user settings not working properly under Windows 2000.

* Fixed resource leak with transparent systray.

* Many other fixes and additions!


What's new in WorkShelf 0.70?

* Switching tabs is now MUCH faster for shelves with more than one row of items.

* Better integration with NextSTART.

* Fixed resource leak with context menus.

* New 'Show Container' option in context menus of file items.

* Fixed problem with saving Workshelf themes and modules.

* Lots of other fixes and additions!


Enjoy!

Johanne (Alexandrie) has made an incredible job with the website and she is one of the best professionals I ever had the pleasure to work with. I'm sure Pixtudio (Johanne and Renato's brand new web design company) will do very well.

Snowman, as stupid as it may seem, the link was most likely done on purpose... Even as a dead site, Skinz.org still holds the largest section of NS skins
