Transparent skins don't show 3rd party titlebar buttons

but they are there . .

from Stardock Forums

Programs such as "dialog tracker" whcih place a button on the title bar, won't show up in transparent skins.  If you clikc on the place they should be, they work, but they are invisible. They do show in non-transparent skins in WB5.

Windowblinds is set up to skin known panels and controls. To include support for third party programs, it would have to happen on a case-by-case basis. Unfortunately if the development team concentrated on including this support, other major areas of improvement could be neglected. Although it may be supported in the future, 3rd party windows customization applications and owner drawn controls are not supported at this time.

(all functionality will still be there, the visuals just won't)
