WB5 quirks

Wednesday, December 7, 2005 by Manny Moe and Jack | Discussion: WindowBlinds

I have two issues with WB5

1
I have the my computer icon and my documents icon changed from their default icons (becuase I can) when Wb starts up, it changes the icons back to what they used to be. Why on earth would it care? it never did before

2
although it says it can ignore skin color themes, it still changes the color themes for my compy. normally I wouldnt care, but when MS word looks so dark that it is hard to read the text I have a problem (using the thredz skin). Is there a way to fix these....annoyances?

yes (you're not the only one) and yes (you're/we're stuck so far)

maybe it's tied into the properties/appearance tab/color scheme button - when i click it, it tells me that's not allowed in the shareware version = which i don't have, i have the paid

Bichur -

The 5.00[b].006 version is supposed to have fixed that (the erroneous shareware version message, anyway).

Cheers,
