Reply to MS Office 2002 Small Business Edition will not skin (XP) Why? in WindowBlinds Stardock Forums

There is a product called XP Style Hacker 1.0 (shareware) that Neil got me researching when he mentioned manifest files. When installed this app allows you to enable non Theme / Skin aware apps to be skinned by creating a manifest file for the exe. While I am on the road currently and can't get to my desktop, I do have Symantec WinFax 10.0 installed on my laptop, which is also a "non" Theme / Skin aware app. I used XP Style Hacker to select the app and I did get the scroll bars to displ

Systray does not display w/downloaded via SD, does when installed as trialware in ObjectBar Stardock Forums

Systray does not display when ObjectBar is download via stardock central (beta off), does when installed as trialware but then skins become flaky on some apps and scroll bar becomes transparent (neither the app skin or WB skin appearance selected, call it ghost scroll bar skin).

Then why does Office 2003 on my laptop skin? What is so unique about Office 2002 that it does not skin on my desktop?

When I click on the StarDock Icon in the object bar a list of applications displays. If I point to to Accessories then left click and hold on Calc and drag of to the right the Accessory Application window becomes a ghost orphan and cannot be closed unless you terminate ObjectBar in Task Manager and re-launch the app. Is this a bug?

MS Office 2002 Small Business Edition will not skin (XP) Why? in WindowBlinds Stardock Forums

I have un-installed WB, MS Office, and re-installed resulting in same problem. The side and bottom scroll bars in Office 2002 are so translucent you can barely seem them. Most other apps seem to have skinned. I also tried setting up Per Application settings to force the skin on Word and Outlook to no avail. Ideas?

Install from Stardock Central installs corrupt ObjectBar & Blinds in Object Desktop Stardock Forums

Continue to find that installing products from Stardock Central results in corrupted installs such as SysTray not displaying in ObjectBar regardless of reboots. Use Stardock to un-install ObjectBar & Blinds and then re-install ObjectBar & Blinds "public" and then install Stardock Central everything is ok including "update" products. Just don't install / un-install products from Stardock Central. Corruption and wierd behavior each and every time.

Reply to Install of OB breaks "no-hide" Win Taskbar in OD in ObjectBar Stardock Forums

With a little more experimenting; if you installed ObjectBar you have to go to Theme Editor and un-check "hide windows taskbar" to get the Windows Task Bar back. Ok, for dummies like me then ObjectDock should gray out "hide the windows task bar" or replace the option with a link to ObjectBar Theme Editor when ObjectBar is installed with ObjectDock.

If you download and install the shareware version of ObjectBar the systray displays just fine. Install from the "purchased" Starbase Central and systray stops displaying on the ObjectBar regardless of systray config display options. Recommendations?
