Windowblinds 8.04 or 8.05 - which to use?

Friday, July 18, 2014 by MeSleeper | Discussion: WindowBlinds

I have a dilemma.  Windowblinds 8.04 works great with everything but Google Chrome (v36 +).  Windowblinds 8.05 works with Google Chrome, but I'm unable to use the various substyles of Windows Aero with 8.05,  Every Windows Aero subsytle I choose has the blue color of the aero substyle with WB 8.05.

Just wondering has anyone else seen this issue?  Any checkboxes I need to change?  Any plans for a WB 8.06 or a WB 9?

Any suggestions or comments appreciated.  Not a huge issue, but would like to get it fixed if I can.

Windows 7 Professional (7601.win7sp1_gdr.140303-2144)
WindowBlinds 8.04 (025 - Windows 7 Edition) - 64 bit OS

Wblind.dll 2014/04/22 14:21:ll
Wblind64.dll 2014/04/22 14:21:49
Wbsrv.dll 2013/06/18 09:44:40
WB8Config.exe 2013/11/19 16:50:17
Wbload.dll 2014/01/16 10:15:08
Screen.exe 2013/06/06 09:52:23

Thanks.

Since there were no responses here, I submitted a support ticket.   I received a request from "Brad" for screen captures to show the issues I'm seeing and submitted those.   Since I haven't heard anything (here or support), I'll work on the assumption I may be the only one seeing the Windows Aero substyle coloring problem with WB 8.05.   It happens.

Maybe a WB 8.06 in the offing soon?  That might eliminate the issue.

Thanks for any response I might get.

If anyone else was having the same problems I described above, I wanted you to know that the newly released version WB 8.06 solved both of the issues I described. No more transparent Chrome top border and one can re-color the Windows Aero theme using the substyles.  Thanks Stardock for fixing this.
