No Titlebar/Unskinned Titlebar

Only sometimes

from Stardock Forums
Hello,

I've got a problem with WindowBlinds...

I'm using the Beta 5.49a.021.

Basically, the software works. It skins everything fine, and it's all okay.

But if I maximize, restore, minimize etc, sometimes the whole titlebar is just completely invisible (so there are no controls there), or the window just becomes totally unskinned (Looks like Windows Classic). I can get around this by minimizing and maximizing the Window. If I do that, it becomes fully skinned again.

But it's just very strange. I know it's beta software, things are supposed to go wrong, but hey.

I'm using Windows XP Home Service Pack 2

I've actually changed hardware, formatted, re-installed one or two times as well, and this problem remains. So it must be the software?

Thanks.

I noticed another version in SDC last night. might give that a whirl.
ObjectDock - Access shortcuts and frequently used applications from an animated dock.

I just updated to the latest (yes beta) windowblinds, and rebooted, and am having the same problem. Not all applications, but several, are loading without titlebar skins. Firefox is one.

Actually, it's not with all applications (as far as I can see). It happens in Firefox, for definate.

I'll see is there are any others.

I tried Fett by Mike Bryant and it wouldn't skin the Titlebar of Firefox 2.0 - the Classic Titlebar was substituted, even after reloading the skin 3 times. All other windows got the Fett Titlebar.

Switched back to my default skin & FF's Titlebar was skinned again. First time I've seen that behavior. I'm using 5.49a[b].021.
