~ Question regarding new Hulk Desktop Theme...

Wednesday, September 29, 2004 by Nomad529 | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

~ Can someone help me with a problem with the WB skin?

~ I can't seem to get the titlebar text to fit inside the titlebar text background and not stretch the image causing it to distort it.

~ Any suggestions?

Double click the WindowBlinds Logo on your system tray...
WindowBlinds Advance configuration/User Overides/ Uncheck "show user icon in start panel"

Hope that helps

Sir MiND TRiPP was leading you in the right direction. In WB configuration there is a setting to increase all font sizes by a percentage. See if you have that selected. If that was not the problem then maybe show us a screenshot so we can see exactly what the prob is. It may be a content margin issue as well.

~ Actually, I mean the text in the window top frame not the one in the start menu.

yeeeeup. looks like a content margin (text overlappin)and a sizing margin (image stretching) issue. Its an easy fix with skinstudio. Send an email to the author and they may have updated it already. Might be a firefox issue also.

Try Deleting the skin and it's folder and re-installing it. Sometimes setting your desktop back to classic will straighten out something that is hung up with a skin as well.

Doesn't do it here, and it's never came up before. Sounds like a random glitch.
If you have Skinstudio, open the skin and in the personailty section, check that the textback image right margin says '13'.

~ Ok, problem solved. I'm not quite sure what the problem was but after deleting and reinstalling the skin by extracting the files manually from the .suite file...everything was fine. Thanks everyone for your help.

~ It might've had something to do with letting SkinStudio validating and correcting it. Not quite sure.

Yeah, that can happen sometimes. What I do is I find out where the error wasn't correctly properly and I fix it manually.
