WB 7 Explorer Issue
Friday, April 30, 2010 by vStyler | Discussion: WindowBlinds
Ok, Neil, not sure your aware of this but any skin loaded does the same...light or dark, backgrounds used.. or not.
When selecting multiple files in any windows 'view', the selection rectangle becomes transparent to whatever is on the desktop. looks really bad.
Also, in some views with extra text info, like content view, search results, the text also is being affect by being colored and distorted by what is under the window, In these example there is a red dragon wallpaper on my desktop, doesn't look horribly bad here, but over say another window that is white, the text becomes absolutely distorted and unreadable.
Hopefully we can get this resolved its a pretty major issue imo.

ok, with Bg's reset and all bg's and code taken out of a skin...your right, its fine...but.. that still leaves all skins with backgrounds or user applied backgrounds with this issue eh?
If one wants pinstripes, textures, a diff color window, one needs a bg in the skin.. I get so frustrated with it, even I load Aero up to do any significant file searching or re-arranging, so.. still a significant bug isn't it?

If you want a solid background you should be ok. Just set the background sections and not the glass ones.
