How to change the blinking behavior of the Taskbar buttons??

The contrast is not enought so the blink is not noticeable

from Stardock Forums

I play Starcraft 2, I click to find a match and Alt+Tab to do another thing while in queue, when the match is ready, the button blinks but since the last update (windows11+start11 updates) the blinking is useless. So I miss the match.

I guess the problem is the same with any other window that requieres atention.

I use the dark theme on the taskbar, and the button blinks in almost the same dark color and very few times.

Is it posible to change the blink color and the time the button keeps blinking?

Hello again.

From what I understand that red/pinkish flashi color can't be changed. Can you post what you actually looking at. A short grab video would help.

Thank you,

Well, zoomed out it is obvios, but with clear theme apps in the rest of the screen, this dark redish color is unoticed when the button blinks a couple times.  :-(

Just a suggestion, maybe try Windowblinds which work very well with Start11 and have option graphically to change the taskbar flashing button to any color of your choice. Or just use any WB Skin that you like.

tried windowblinds. it wasnt for me :( all i want is to change the background colour of the active program on the taskbar *sniff*. windowblinds did do that tho but then it added all kind sof other stuff as well and had to be permanently running taking up more resources. it wasnt worth the $$ for me (dollar to local currency rapes us). 

start11 - no questions about it, worth every penny. wb just to change active app bg colour... not so much

guess my main gripe with wb is that there doesnt seem like a way to "only" change the active window + blink without a whole skin
