A couple of questions for downloaded WB5 skins
Monday, January 2, 2006 by DigitalOZ | Discussion: WindowBlinds
I've downloaded several of the new WB5 skins. They are really great. I really appreciate all the time put into them. I have a couple of questions, though. I've searched through the forums and options in WB5 and can't see the obvious answer. HOpefully this isn't too basic:
1. Most of the skins I like the best don't allow me to right-click rollup the window. Is there a place I can turn this on or does this have to be designed into the skin? This feature of WB is the main reason I like it.
2. Some of the skins I've used set the desktop wallpaper. This seems to be a new thing in WB5 as I don't recall this happening in previous versions. While I don't mind it being set the first time, it appears it resets the wall paper everytime I log in. I'd like to have the option to have my own wall paper on some of the skins that do this. Is it possible to disable thi?
Thanks!

1. Yes. Open the Windowblinds Congiguration Menu, click on "User Overrides" and then on the "Advanced" button. Choose your Right-Click Action.
2. This is listed in the "Basic Settings" tab.
Note that you get to the Configuration Window by going to "Display Properties, Appearance Tab and clicking the Windowblinds button on the right.

Thanks everyone. Those were exactly what I needed and I see quite a few more options to play with now too!

#2. Bring up WindowsBlinds Configuration and select Basic Settings from the left side. Under Enhance Desktop Elements un-check Apply any wallpaper supplied.
Hope this answers your questions.
