A few questions

Sunday, May 11, 2003 by JohnnyC243 | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

Hello everyone, I'm new here and I just got SkinStudio so I'm working on my first skin. I've run in to some things that are giving me trouble, I was woundering if you guys could help me out.

1. I can't seem to save any skin as a substyle. I follow the directions in the SkinStudio Save As dialog but it never turns out right.
2. Sometimes two pixels down the entire right hand side of any window disappear. If I minimize then maximize the window they come back but that gets annoying after a while.
3. It seems like more of my windows are being opened in a non-maximized way ever since I've been using windowblinds, why is this?
4. In the windows XP right click menu there is a little seperator between groups of items. I can't figure out how to skin that with SkinStudio.
5. Start>All Programs there is a little horizontal seperator, I can't figure out how to customize that either.
6. How come the picture of the WindowBlinds skin "OSXP NG" has different icons and a skinned Task Panel in the picture here: https://www.wincustomize.com/skins.asp?library=1&SkinID=2906 but not when I download it and use it on my computer.
7. Adobe Elements doesn't skin very well with windowblinds so I tried to exclude it in the settings by saying "Ignore this application and do not skin it" but that ended up making it worse and gave it no skinning whatsoever, not even the default Windows XP skin. How do I get it so Elements gets the Default Windows XP skin but everything else gets the custome windowblinds skin?

If anybody knows anything about these issues, please let me know.

It's not part of object desktop, it's a free standalone program https://www.stardock.com/products/objectdock/ I don't use it, but it seems fairly popular

I've run into another problem. For some reason I can't figure out how to change the color of the font for the Pressed state of the menubar text. Can someone help me?
