Reply to Vista skinning questions. in Skinning WinCustomize Forums

I never used SkS 5 so I thought that anything buggy is just Skinstudio itself, but from this thread (and others)... another thing, that bothered me is, that pixels with alpha=0 are replaced with black in popup menu background. As a workaround I add a background layer 50% grey 1% opacity which is almost invisible. Anyone an idea?

I.R. where did you change the text color for items on the right side of explorer (01 - Gnaahh, green)? I´ve searched for that for years but no system color seems to be linked to it, so I thought it is hardcoded...

Reply to SKS6: menubar items text in Skinning WinCustomize Forums

cool thanks for that! I had found some workaround using align and text margings. It worked most times, but not always ;) this one is what I was looking for, "lege artis" :)

Reply to Icon Packager messes up icons for file types in Object Desktop WinCustomize Forums

the messing up of icons is still there, btw. I did everything mentioned here, uninstalled-reinstalled-started with default vista icon pack... I´m working on some iconpack now but each time I save it some more icons are wrong, so I better stop working on it right now- no chance. Do I have to delete certain files manually after uninstall?

[quote]In SKS6 go to "Change Skin Colours" > Show me the skin defined system colours > Window background works here every time for me ~shrug~[/quote] my finding: I´m not shure but I think there´s a bug in SkS. For some colors changes were only seen when I edited the .uis (or .sss) directly. obviously SkS does different things on different systems?

[quote]That dosnt work...it moved from the xy coordinates but wouldnt budge with margins...no margin setting tried(and I tried a lot)would alter the position of that search icon(or the searchbar itself).Redesigning or resizing the bottom bar is unacceptable.Power buttons will not move at all away from the searchbar.[/quote] I had the same problem with the search box. Seems that a minimum size (height) of the bottom bar is definitely needed for a correct placement of it´s content otherwi

[quote]...is going to be psd integration with layers,layerstyles...[/quote] would be perfect, yes! and talking about feature suggestions: what would be really nice is, if one could add glyphs also to the window frames. You could add nice ornaments to the middle (or wherever) of e.g. a bottom bar, without being stretched/shrinked. I bet this would allow for lots of new creative elements for UI design... (Actually I always wondered why you can add a glyph almost

SKS6: menubar items text in Skinning WinCustomize Forums

does anyone know if it is possible to disable the shifting of text in menubar items when pressed (usually it shifts one or two pixels down/right)? or some workaround?

Reply to Icon Packager messes up icons for file types in Object Desktop WinCustomize Forums

thanks bichur for suggestions. set to default was ok, repair and rebuild didn´t do anything. Tried to start from scratch and there (I guess) I found the reason. I´m always starting with the Aero Iconset of Josephs. I deleted it, downloaded it again from the site here and installed it again. And that´s what came out: [img]http://homepage.ruhr-uni-bochum.de/Alexander.Stang/pic/Iconsschief.jpg[/img] The shapes seem to be ok but the content is somehow Z-shaped distorted (e

oh man I whish I could help you more, cause I know how it is if you have a detailed question and think someone MUST KNOW SOMETHING about it but no reply (except of some well appreciated people here). On the other hand I think some questions here (and from me in other threads) actually can´t be solved atm (but stardock could give a shout too, well... at least what´s possible and what´s not) [U]ok complained enough[/U]. the only thing of your load of questions I know is: favorite
