Background behind Caption Text in title bar with 2 states?

from WinCustomize Forums

Using SKS 6 Free.

I have my caption text centered in the middle of the title bar with the System Icon set to be to the left of the text. I have a background going across the title bar that makes the text Very hard to read. I want to add a background image to the text and system icon so that it looks better and is easier to read. I have noticed that I can add a background image to the caption text but there is no "2 images" option for the image, meaning it has a state for when the window is selected and a state for when the window is not selected by the user. Right now it looks like it only has 1 image and it is the same for the selected and deselected states for the window which in my theme are very different.

Anyone know a way around this or if I missed the option somewhere?

Thanks in advance,

-LZ

Make your image with 2 states first one for active and the second for inactive. Just set the frame count to 2.

This is the same for Perpixel frames too.

What version of SkinStudio are you using? I couldn't see the option to set the image count in mine. I really appreciate the quick response.

Never mind, found it. I didn't have "Experienced User Mode" turned on. So, those options don't show if that isn't on.
