3D Programs don't work with WB and Aero
Sunday, May 6, 2012 by MCMXC2 | Discussion: WindowBlinds
Hi, I have problems with 3D Applications, WindowBlinds and Aero...
My setup is: WindowBlinds 7.4 - Win7 64 - Radeon HD 6950
I used 3D programs like Lightwave, Blender, Hexagon, DAZ Studio... and when WindowBlinds is on with AERO, their 3D windows show nothing. Only by disabling AERO, the 3D windows work again...
Any idea on what is wrong, please?

I tried to exclude them in the "Per Application" menu, but... the problem is still active:(

-Since it only happens when using Aero and on 3d-programs that I also have a problem with it seems like it is a softwareissue rather than a Hardware/malware issue.

Did you click on the "Apply changes" button after setting up the exclusions? - It's an easy thing to miss.
Also try unloading any other desktop-type software you may have running such as any docks, SysMetrics, rainlender, DesktopX, Fences, Tiles, etc which could be contributing. I.e., try it without any additional graphics running.

If so, the one to adress this matter to would be Neil Banfield the creator of the software. He looks in here from time to time
I hope he will notice this thread then:/
Yes... I rebooted, I changed the skin... nothing worked:(

WindowBlinds is the only one running... well... excepting for IconPackager but I don't think it does count:D

It happens to me too and it´s not really an error.
Exclude the programs you don´t want WindowBlinds to skin in "settings" of the WindowBlinds application and all will be good.
