Minor error in oversized startbuttons in WB 4.99 RC1

I don't have this when I apply "Arrow". Using 4.99 RC1...Dont' have that with VistaXP (Kol's), either...

I have it with both the Arrow and the VistaXP skins using the 4.99 RC 1 build. I do not have it with the 4.98 build.

I have the same problem, also oversized start button not there when apply skin only after open start menu, then it looks the same as in nimmer's pic above. WB 4.99[rc].006. AS nimmer stated and showed was working on last build.

Mine is slightly different. Load the skin and there is a line through it like top image. Left clicking on the task bar clears it though. When I bring up the start menu it covers the top of the button. Using 4.99RC. Didn't have this with the last build. This is on the updated version of Arrow. Can't recall whether the button was covered by the start button before.

We made some changes to how oversized startbuttons work which mean the shadow from the startmenu overlaps the start button slightly.  This can be avoided by disabling the shadow on the startmenu in the skin & adding one via WBs per pixel support.

The startmenu should never overlap the startbutton though.

Here is an image of what I'm seeing.

My startbutton looks bad too when I updated to RC. I have no idea how to fix it.

I had the same problem as above,and reapplied the skin and it went away.

I have the same problem as stated by nimmer_dk and Majic7. Reapply the skin does sort of fix Majic& problem but after a while it happen again. There are times that I experience missing start button glow effect.

Also, when I use oversized start button with perpixel start panel, specially the bottom part, the hover effect stuck to it. Is there any way to avoid it?

I reapply the skin and it didnt work but when I restart it works.

Even with the very latest RC on SDC?

Just updated to latest version a couple of hours ago and I still have the same problem.

@ Neil Banfield: nop, with the latest work fine here.

I have the same image problem with the start menu opened covering the button that Majic7 has also. I have the RC version installed and also made sure that the blind was the current Arrow one by deleting it first before installing the RC version of WB5.

Hey Neil, same problem here still. Unloaded WB, uninstalled thru SDC, reboot, install thru SDC, reboot.
My taskbar is set to large in WB config.
This is how start button looks on Arrow ( no shadows )

WB version installed is 4.99a[rc].003

Reappling skin and restarting computer do not fix.

This issue is not fixed in the final version. I'm still having problem with start panel sits on top of the start button. The funny thing is, if I open the start panel and leave there in about 10 sec, the start button will position itself on top of the start panel.

Not a big deal but I noticed that the tooltip for the start button ("Click Here to Start")is under the startmenu using cyclops.

I just discovered something. Out of the blue my cursor started to go behind the title bar while using Cyclops WB. The buttons still glow and work but the cursor is under them. Switched to Arrow, same thing and additionally the cursor goes behind any transparent borders. Disabled Cursor XP and default cursor works as it should. Whats weird is that the start button glitch disappears when Cursor XP is disabled. Its the free version of Cursor XP.
