Incompatibility issues with AIMP player (latest version) in which errors pop up whenever something is clicked in the options menu (e.g preferences). Excluded it from skinning and everything is fine.

I don't think this bug has been reported yet:

System

Windows 8 Pro 64-bit

AMD Turion X2 Dual-Core Mobile RM-72 2.10 Ghz

ATI Mobility Radeon 3400 series

8 GB RAM

512 MB dedicated VRAM

Windowblinds version

7.95 (011- Windows 8 Edition)

Bug

With some applications, Windowblinds may cause the responsive areas associated with one or more buttons to be misaligned.

Example: the bottom right corner of the pause/play button on the VLC media player will become unresponsive if the Stardock Win8 skin or Adni18's 7 Plus skin is applied. The entire surface of the button becomes unresponsive if Win8 Metro is used. Interestingly, no such problems occur if I use the old XP Cobalt skin.

Exempting the application from being skinned resolves the problem. The button can also be made fully responsive by minimising then maximising the application.

I had a similar problem with one of the Photoshop 6 menus, but cannot now reproduce it.

When i updated WB 7.9 WB 7.95 this is what I get.  When I open windows everything inside said window is Black.  Please See Screenshot.

A Second Problem I have been seeing is a close box randomly placed on my screen.  If i close WB i can close this box (i can never see what the error actually was) and then reload but i cannot close it with WB active and it happens every time i start my computer with WB active.

 Any Ideas?

Media buttons are not skinned properly to the taskbar. The buttons are weirdly misaligned. Happens on VLC media player and Windows Media Player. 

On WB 7.95 , Win 8 64 -bit

new problem ... was not with 7.90 or 7.91.

Have icons in the task bar for launching Windows games (FreeCell, Majong, Solitair).  With previous versions, when I clicked the shortcut, the game launched in a window on the desktop.  With 7.91, it still launches but in a very small window.  When I click the window, it then resizes to the same default size as with previous WB versions.  I unloaded WB, tried the same actions, and the games open properly as they did before with the previous WB versions.

Repost since I posted in the wrong location:

v 7.95: bringing firefox to full screen causes addressbar text to be cut off on the top.  Reverting to windowed mode does not show this bug.  Going back again to full screen will bring it back.  Using diamond theme.  Resetting theme while in full screen causes problem to go away, but bug still exists by going to windowed and then full screen.

I am also getting this on Win7 64 bit, latest beta.

Okay, This applies for all blinds with text blurred on Startmenue Programslist:

Same problem here. Win 8 Pro Media Center Edition 64 bit.

And as you can see it doesn´t happen to Places list.

Which skin are you having this with?

I seem to have an issue the new WindowBlinds for Windows 8.  This involves taskbars on secondary monitors.  Whenever I apply a skin via WindowBlinds the secondary taskbar on the secondary monitors keeps jumping up and down like a kangaroo.  Up, blink, down, up, blink, down... like a kangaroo.

eg; Vaporglow, Cypher.

This may have already been reported here, but FreeCell and Minesweeper open windows that are really tiny. If I grab the side or bottom, the window immediately expands to a usable size. If I unload WB (7.95), then the windows open properly. When I restart WB, the problem is back. I never saw this with the previous versions of WB.

I reported a similar problem in post #225 -- and did some testing to confirm it.

Confirmed it was WB: Unloaded WB, clicked the shortcuts --now open properly, as they did before installing WB

Confirmed it was WB 7.95: Reinstalled WB 7.91 over 7.95, clicked the shorcuts -- now open properly, as they did before installing WB 7.95.

So, if you want them working properly again, unload WB, reinstall 7.91, and they will.

The issue with Minesweeper and Freecell should be sorted in the next build.

The newest beta (7.98) has corrected this. Thank you, well done!

I am not getting the see through text issue previously reported when using explorer backgrounds with transparency applied. Excellent!

7.98 has corrected my issue with the icon in the systray...... Thank you. Everything else looks just fine and dandy Neil!!
