sysmetrix help

Sunday, February 5, 2006 by vikram sheorey | Discussion: WindowBlinds

I am having problems applying Sysmetrix items onto a WB skin which I have managed ( somehow ) to install on my laptop.

Can anyone help. The sysmetrix is installed within the WB folder but so are the items I wish to install within the same folder i.e. C:\progfiles\stardock\objectdesktop\windowblinds\sysmetrix\items i want to install and sysmetrix set up - if that makes sense.

Also a basic question is what is the difference between light and enhanced skins?

Thanks

(p.s. I've put this mail into the general topic by mistake so please ignore that one )

ok is this where you installed sysmetrix to? or did you drag the folders there ?.. if you install to a certain path then you can not move the prog to another folder and expect it to be able to find all the necessary files to run..(the prog will only look in the folder paths it was originally installed to..) also WB can not run sysmetrix skins...WB is a seperate program from sysmetrix and requires a different type of skin file .. the two are not able to use each others skin files ..

it would be like taking a distributor cap off a 1993 mitsubishi mirage and trying to use it in a 57 chevy .. it just wont work...

Thanks for that, seems to work very well now. Just one more pain in the butt question. These meters that are now installed seem to disappear when moving from one window to the next especially with web sites.

Is this normal?

If not then how can I make it so that these meters are constantly on?
