A few WB 5 Bugs I've encountered
Monday, November 21, 2005 by kmkkid | Discussion: WindowBlinds
I've discovered a few bugs while playing with WB 5, none which have been fixed up to the very last beta.
- My 'Open with' dialog box as well as others have black backgrounds making it impossible to read the text.
- For the last few builds it seems that everytime I reboot Windowblinds defaults the classic colour scheme to Luna, and not that of the WB skin chosen, it also reverts the shell animations.
- Using Cursor XP, the cursor seems to lag behind the dragged window, or simply stay in place until a refresh.
- It seems that windows 'jerk' when I first try and move them, only large ones, possibly caused by a CPU spike wheich I notice when I first move a per-pixel window. This may be my graphics card (Intel integrated 845g 64MB) But Other per-pixel programs/skins have never jerked or lagged no matter how big the window with this card.
Here are my Specs:
2.53 Ghz Intel P4 w/Intel Integrated 845G 64MB, 512MB of DDR RAM.

And I also have 'Enable if you have corrupted titlebar buttons & text backgrounds' checked.
and as a side note, all I've used on the latest betas are per-pixel enabled skins, so I have no idea if these bugs happen with regular skins yet. Any help/answers/remedies would be greatly appreciated.
