Yes, I get that too. But it's not really Windowblinds' fault that NVidia uses non-standard Windows controls and windows. Don't know if putting that window in the exclusion list would work... Lemme try...

OK, after some checking, I found that it depends on the skin. Some skins are fine, while some do as your screenshot. Now I'm stumped, no clue why.

There doesn't appear to be a way to exclude a display property window from WB.

With this skin, it's fine.

But with this one, it's not.

And it doesn't seem to be a UIS1/UIS2 issue. It's the first thing I checked.

hmm, that bug looks similar to a bug you will get in the favorites menu when you set a certain color.

This is also similar to a bug you will get when you use dialog backgrounds. The text always seems to have a frame around it.
