Windowblinds 5 and Styler toolbar problems
Friday, January 13, 2006 by ashley hazrell | Discussion: WindowBlinds
I thought I saw a thread that covered this but I searched and couldn't find it so I apologize if this is a repeat.
I have windowblinds 5 installed as well as styler toolbar. The problem is that when styler is running my windowblinds skin doesn't work right (titlebars not skinned and the toolbar is completelt messed up). When I apply a new skin it resorts to the default classic windows look. If I turn styler toolbar off everything works fine. I was wondering if anyone else has encountered this problem and had a solution to fix it. My system is:
Dell Inspiron 6000 Laptop
1.60 GHz pentium M processor
512 MB ram
128MB ATI Mobility Radeon x300 graphics card
catalyst 5.13 video driver (have tried 5.11 and 5.12 as well)
As I said, turning off styler fixes the problem but I would like to be able to run it as well. Any help or tips would be greatly appreciated.

Are you sure the only options enabled in Styler are toolbar ones?

I tried unloading and reloading Windowblinds but it didn't seem to work. As soon as I start Styler Toolbar up my skin switches to the default classic view (but with the Windowblinds color scheme) Even when I quit Styler and reload windowblinds it stays with the corrupted classic look and won't skin correctly until I reboot. I also just double checked my options in Styler and the only options enabled are the toolbar ones. I can live without using Styler if I need to, but since it worked fine with a previous version of Windowblinds I'm curious as to why it messes things up now.
