[quote who="NeverExists07" reply="232" id="3766351"] Hey Just thought I'd mention that Qbittorent looks weird with windowblinds. When you try to make the window bigger using the cursor it makes many overlapping borders and lines. Thanks. [/quote]I'm not getting this unless you're referring to the general way that windows can be slow to render with WB when resizing so you get a stuttering effect. This might be a slow hardware problem or with things not up to date. Else it might be a

WindowBlinds' updates have been broken since version 10.8. I've recently had to use the purge tool to start over completely afresh with version 10.84 because I was having problems. I had two entries for WB in my Remove Programs list since 10.82 and the About page on the config app showed 10.8 with certain components having not been updated since May. There was a period when I was not a subscriber but I was still getting update notifications and was able to download 10.84 full version none the

Ah, thank you. I do have it as part of OD but it's one of the newer apps so I didn't realise it existed! Object Desktop is a great deal (free plug), even if DesktopX and ObjectBar are no more. [e digicons]:'([/e] Gone, but not forgotten...

[quote who="sdRohan" reply="212" id="3759248"]But its fine on the Win10 general release: [/quote]Tabs in Explorer?! What is this wizardry?? A skin feature? All the skins I use are 15 years old, at least!...

I know about that Sean! Been having to do that on and off for years... ;) I was asking where the setting in Fortissimo to keep its window on top was. Thanks anyway.

[quote who="Castig" reply="169" id="3735289"] Fortissimo has an always on top option. [/quote]Where is this? I can't seem to find it. Is it only available in the registered version? Also, the app looks great with Windowblinds skins!

[quote who="truckleajorders" reply="165" id="3735244"]The issue is the toolbar. It renders the icons over on the left, but it still thinks under the hood that they are over on the right. You have to move the mouse to the right to get the actual operations.[/quote]Interesting. I wonder if this is the same for all apps that operate in this mode. Do Stardock have many users who use Arabic et al I wonder?

As in Arabic and such? I can type with the setting turned on but it doesn't stick when I click OK. Assuming that what this is about.

[quote who="truckleajorders" reply="159" id="3735138"] I have sent you an email about my application VisitsRota which is not rendering correctly for RTL mode. [/quote]This works for me. What is RTL mode?

[quote who="MagikGimp" reply="142" id="3733164"]I'd like to point out that for me Object Desktop Manager was installing each beta as it became available, or at least it was reporting that it had done so. The installation went fine and both it and WB were even reporting that no further updates were available; however, I was not getting an About page like as shown. It was only because I saw that screenshot that I bothered to check. Only once I had unloaded WB and then run the install

I get black bits, or at least I have in the past, and that was when the software was telling me I had the latest version installed but didn't (please see my previous post). It seemed to occur when you can tell Windows needs a full reboot (I hibernate my machine between sessions) and other things start to fall apart e.g. Explorer using too many resources etc., not just the visuals; you know what I mean? I've just loaded Corporate and it's fine for me, for now. Saying that though, I hav

Thanks for your reply. I presume elia had purchased v7 previously then? I have versions 4 & 5 but was just hoping for the extra features available in 7. Oh well, it was worth a try...

Pardon my bumping this thread but might it be possible that I could have v7 added to my account too, please? I am currently a subscriber but am in the process of renovating an old XP rig and found out about the incompatibility as well. I was under the assumption that old versions weren't given out but then I read this thread and now I'm hopeful! [e digicons]:pout:[/e]

I did forget to point out that for some reason WindowFX doesn't like it when I drag Edge around my desktop, but it's not the end of the world. In other news, Thunderbird (version 60) has gone full Metro / WSA (as in look not in install location) and so is now completely incompatible with Windowblinds. It does keep the colour-scheme when it's ignored in settings though but that's normal Windows behaviour I think?

Here's what you need but be prepared for frustration. You have to take ownership of the folder and each time there's an update a new folder for the app will be created so you'll need to add the app again. Thankfully I haven't encountered a Metro / WSA app that I've had a problem with with WB, yet... I was t

Another one- I've noticed that in Edge, the website preview show/hide button isn't showing at all for some reason and it's impossible to add Edge to the exclude list as far as I can make out (due the way it runs). You can still switch full previews on and off with a registry change although I won't be posting any links to where you can find them as I'll probably be told off for doing so! They're not hard to find.

For Chrome, look back two messages ago... You missed that didn't you! What e-mail client are you using?

Ah, good to know. Thanks Dave!

I suppose you have a point, in that modern apps built with whatever it is that gives them that "Metro" flat look are either entirely ignored by Windowblinds or aren't quite entirely skinned properly with it but my point was that, in terms of stability, Windowblinds is a lot better now. I guess I'm more forgiving and I tend to spend more time with older software anyway. It's ironic that the Object Desktop Manager is even built this way (and so isn't skinned by WB either!) I tr

I think that's a little unfair if you ask me. Windowblinds is working better than it ever has I would say--I had versions 4 & 5 back on XP--and I have very little incompatibility with apps these days so far. As the flagship app for Stardock I think it's a very good piece of software, as it should be. The problem I mentioned earlier with the recent large Windows 10 update I resolved by simply reloading the Style and Mozilla's software must just be coded in a particular way that is

This one by Prisoner7 he made when he was 14? https://www.sevenforums.com/free-developer-programs-projects/63796-transparency-project.html Yeah, I can see how that would cause problems! WindowFX can do transparency itself so it's likely the two apps would clash. Right click on an app's taskbar for the transparency options.

Oh, wait! I remember a bit more now. I had a problem with an item in Explorer's context menu (right click menu) which was causing things to hang. It was Comodo Backup 's fault and once I'd uninstalled that app the problem went away; assuming this is the same problem of course (it was a while ago now!) You may have another app causing a similar problem? I completely forgot about that but, now I think about it, that's another thing you might want to consider tackling.
