Well, there are a few threds on this, but for now i havnt seen a fix. Heres what u can do temporarily until someone figures out a real fix: hit the restore button, and click on one of the previously disabled items on the menubar, then maximise again OR just keep the window in the restored state, and enlarge it so it fills the screen.
Well, one thing that helped me, was to cut off the excess transparency, so that only the very cornors were left, and it only showed small dots in the cornors where the transparency was.
Well, i have figured out the answer to my question; the problem i have been facing is not because the transparency is not working, but that the Button Face/Dialog background was set to the wrong colour; white... However when i changed it, a slew of other aspects also changed colour and just about destroyed my skin. im not about to change my whole skin for this one very small problem, but it would be nice if Stardock could somehow seperate them into two seperate changeable colours.
Humm, it seems to only be appearing if i turn off Msstyles, which in my opinion does not look as good. As for the button situation, i cannot get it to become transparent, but i did notice that on web pages, the transparency worked, which leads me to beleive that it might have to be a bitmap image to work on those dialog boxes. Maybe you want to take a look at it?
Any way to manually change the code as i do not have the pro version of SKS? :S Edit: Mouth before brain syndrome, sorry. notepad :P
[quote]Check off "this image has an alpha channel" for all tga /png images and select "this image has transparent parts" option. Select "this image has transparent parts" only when you have a bmp (magic pink)[/quote] Well, i tried that, as well as a number of different combinations that deal with those settings but no dice, although that is good to know, because before i didnt have a clue as to what they refered. so, whats with the pre-multiplied alpha option? <p
well, im actually not sure how to exactly, lol, unless i download the trial... Edit: Oh, i'm smart, i didnt realise u just had to type in ur email at support to get the new one :) Anyways, i installed 6.3 and still have the same problem
Hi, if you take a look at the pictures below, you can see that even though I have transparicy enabled on the button that it still does not become transparent, although it is hard to tell against the white background, it easily shows in the confirmation windows/dialog boxes. Next, the group box that i have created simply does not show up, even whith the original one from the default template. im thinking this is because i cannot upgrade to the newest version of windows b
yes, you are moving the bar, but how do you make the start bar wider in general :S
any real fix for this yet?

Hi, im new to this fourm, and while i was attempting to skin Windows Explorer in Vista with SKS6, i hit a snag. as you can see in the screenshot, the coulour of the font in theinformation panel at the bottem of the screen is black, i would like to turn it white. also, there are two items that i cannot figure out whether i can skin them, or where the option is to skin them; the header of the favourite links, and the dividing line of the favourite links. Also, i cannot find an option to change the
