Skinning Problem
Friday, September 9, 2005 by JGSaxon | Discussion: WindowBlinds
I am using the latest version of Windowblinds and I am having a problem with skinning. When I apply a skin, it gets applied to internet explorer, and explorer and the taskbar, but it does not skin the logoff screen and the shutdown/restart screen. I was having this problem all day and I ended up doing a system restore back to before I even installed Windowblinds and then reinstalled. I also cannot set custom animations, even if I set it in my WindowBlinds main option for "My Animations" and the "Always use animations selected below", nor can I set "My Toolbars" using "Always use the toolbar icon set selected below", so I am having three seperate problems that I was hoping a fresh install would have taken care of but hasn't. I know that there are skins for the Logoff screen and the Shutdown/Restart screen because if I open SkinStudio and look at the .wba file it shows skins for those items. The other two make absolutely no sense either because I am specifying the "Animations" and "Toolbars" that I want to use, but they are not being applied. Any suggestions short of Uninstall and reinstall, because I have already done that.

Fresh install of Windows XP SP2, I low leveled the drive and reformatted and reinstalled everything. On the Logoff screen I get two buttons, one for Fast User Switch and the other for Logoff, and on the Shutdown screen I get three buttons, one for Restart, one for Shutdown, and one for Standby/Hibernate. I know that it used to work at one time when I first got a paid Object Desktop Suite, but no longer works.
