Rainlendar skin doesn't skin the to-do list

Monday, September 27, 2004 by tt57 | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

I'm new to Object desktop and am having a lot of fun. But why does Rainlendar use the windowblinds skin or the to-do list.

All the skins preview show lovely Rainlendar-skinned to-do lists (and more of the other bits of Rainlendar that I'm only just getting to gips with).

Whichever skin I install, it's the same. If I go to "edit to do list" the box is skinned like my windowblinds theme (or, if I disable it 'per application' fo Rainlendar, the box is just bog-standard windows).

Sorry about this but no-one seems to have asked the same question before.

Thanks everyone and hello.

That first line should have read:

"But why does Rainlendar use the windowblinds skin FOR the to-do list instead of Rainlendar's own skin?"

What version of Rainlendar are you using? The latest is 0.19.3, I believe.

Also, you said all rainy skins? Have you made sure the ones you tried have a ToDo list? Some authors don't include them.

One more thing. What OS are you using?

This from Rainy on using Win9x
Win9x doesn't handle alpha blending (i.e. semi-transparency) very well which creates problems with some of Rainlendar's skins. There are graphics errors especially when the images are scaled (e.g. in todo-window & message box). The images might not be visible or the colors might be wrong.
