Skinning Shellstyles, font color issues.

from WinCustomize Forums
In certain areas of the shellstyle it seems impossible to edit the font color even though skinstudio has a setting for font color windowblinds does not make the changes... these areas are such as... The Subcategories of the Control panel Category view-The special folder's bars on explorer (My Pictures; My Music etc..), and the shutdown dialogues. Also in reguards to the glyphs that appear in content panels of the common tasks... I have been able to edit Such as the faded music note on My Music but I have seen seen a glyph for "Search" but have not found where in WinXP this is used... can someone help a novice skinner?

Are the font issues something that will be fixed when Windowblinds comes out of beta?

Shellstyle skinning is still at its first steps.
Currently it is not very flexible. Off hand, I don't remember about the other things you listed, but I know that you can't change the font color of the shutdown dialog curently.
As for the Search image, make a Search and the results of your search will be listed in the Search special folder.

^^Gabriel make sure your running latest WB3.9xx, as that will correct your special pane text colours, also for large "my pictures, movies, search glyphs" colour depth has to be 8bit or 16 for them to show and can be any size. Click search on start panel you'll see where large search glyph is, as for small glyph for search it does not seem to show anywhere that i have seen yet. Just as paxx says only text colours that cant be changed now are shutdown & log off dialogs.
