Desktop X: How to...

Friday, May 16, 2003 by Duff Lite | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

How do you edit a theme so that when windows are maximize, it doesn't cover the whole screen (except for the bar)? In other words, there are themes with items that I want to show at all time, even when windows are maximize. How do I make it so that the windows maximize to x,y crods so certain things are not blocked. Clear as mud?

Oh, and what software is used to create DX themes? Skin Studio? From what I've read, it only skin Windowblinds.

You need WindowFX. It allows you to select the size of a maximised window and its position on screen.

I knew it was possible to do it with DX alone. Now, where is it in the configuration is the workspace area? Do you mean the diolog box or the desktop itself?

Oo, by the way, I'm using your Inovation DX theme for the 1024, and I just wanted to resize the max screen so the bottom portion is a little higher, just above the bottom of the wallpaer, so media/system stats screen is visiable when windows are maxed.

Oh nevermind, It's right there in my face and I didn't see it.
