Dark Steel Winstep
I need help!!!
Saturday, April 13, 2013 by RedneckDude | Discussion: Sneak Previews
I'm trying my first Winstep theme and I must say I need help.
I am hoping Xiandi or WebGizmos, or anyone else who skins Winstep might see this and help me?
I need to know which graphic the NextStart menu uses.

For some reason, the nexus bar graphic is flipped vertically.....hmmmm.

You mean the startbar? Not sure what to think about that, haven't seen it happen, unless you've got the startbar set to display as "vertical" instead of horizontal and it's drawing funky. I've always thought the vertical startbar drew a little funky, at least not quite the way I'd like unless it's a very plain image, but not really flipped.
Not seeing any options anywhere to make it flip - 'course that doesn't mean there's not one there somewhere.

Dave, the Nexus Dock is what I meant.
I'm not sure what you mean by startbar, unless you mean the NextStart taskbar. It is fine.

Yep that's what I was talking about, I was still on NextStart 
Automatically rotating the dock image is an option in the v9 skinnning section. Is it flipping when you select the position at "top" vs "bottom"?
If that's it and you've got the v9x installed I can point you to that. If not I guess you'd have to edit a config file or start from a theme that doesn't flip. You can define individual images for each dock position too (NxBack.png, NxBackLeft.png, NxBackRight.png, NxBackTop.png) which would be another way to plug it up.

OK, Dave, found the setting and told it not to flip the Nexus dock when docked at top. That unflipped it, but it causes the icon mouseover effects to go reversed. ( expanding upward instead of downward when moused over.)

A for the Active state, I for the Inactive State, AS for the Active Selected (mouseover), IS for the Inactive Selected:
Top Section - TitleA.png and TitleI.png
Body of menu - ButtonA.png, ButtonAS.png, ButtonI.png, ButtonIS.png
Bottom section - EndcapA.png and EndcapI.png
I think that's it.
