Opera Win Vs. WB
Friday, August 13, 2010 by JeffxBreeze | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
I am glad that Opera and WB issue went smooth, but,, still an important issue specially for netbook user,, when maximizing Opera under native window engine tabs are place between opera button and close button on the title bar it self, while in WB the tabs are underneath the title bar,
a vertical space is wasted and it's so crucial for netbook users.
From what I have gathered, firefox 4 is going the same path.
Just wondering are WB doing anything regarding this issue.
Opera in WB

Neil (WB lead developer) would know better, but what I see from pics is that Opera does not conform to MS windows standards by having the tabs in the titlebar, WB does skin to MS standards so therefore tabs are in menu bar.

So let me see if I understand this correctly...
When using Opera and Windowblinds, it's creating a third toolbar at the top for the custom close buttons... etc...?
I don't really see the problem with that. Firefox and Opera always did that for me whether I was using a blind or Aero. Having it happen in new versions instead of the app filling the entire screen isn't much of a problem, imo. Though I can see how it would be annoying for a teeny netbook with a ten inch screen. But again, it wouldn't be very different from how it is now, would it?
Or am I missing the point somewhere in there?
