Thursday, February 2, 2006 by greg2 | Discussion: Stardock Support General

i hope the problem is simple but i have looked for threads about this but found none.Qut of the 5 Vista blinds out there and yes i have all of them only 1 has trans. borders the Explorers[only vista final by Iyln] all other versions the the border's are white or gray?and in the screen shot's they are transparent. I have S3 pro onboard graphics with the newest grafics driver's from VIA [aug. 05]and they seem to support per pix because all my edges are round and smooth the only problem i seem to have is with the trans. on windows explorer and IE explorer and yes i have a paid version of WB5 so any answers would be helpful and thank you in advance for any help

The fact that the one blind you get transparency with is the only one that doesn't use per-pixel alpha to achieve it should be a clue as to the problem.

If you check the System Information in Window Blinds Configuration you will most likely find that your system does not support per-pixel.
