Can't set Gamma on skins?

I'm using Vista Premium with WB 5.5.... ATI Radeon x800XT.

For some reason, Gamma Adjustment is NOT WORKING. When I set it in the wb config, I can see the adjusted gamma on the preview like I want it. When I apply the changes, the splash screen as the skin is loading shows the darker gamma. Yet, once the skin is actually applied - there's no gamma adjustment! I have tried this with several different skins and the results are the same on all.

What's up here - why can't I do gamma adjustment!? I have tried it with and without color and HSL enabled/disabled, but that makes no difference. It simply REFUSES to apply gamma adjustment to my windows.

Here's an example (using Optix):


I have applied changes before snipping the screenshot - yet the changes clearly do not take, as you can see that the actual window controls are much lighter in color than the gamma adjusted controls.

I know I did a fix for this weeks ago and I will find out what is happening to the update.

New build up (5.50.023) on SDC today that addresses this.

I'm not sure that it does. Every time I reboot my PC, the default gamma setting comes up and I always have to adjust it to suit my needs. It does kinda get irritating, and I have the latest update, so I hope it's not just me.
