[quote who="JanOscar" reply="6" id="3980718"] I use different CursorFX themes from time to time but the one I use almost all the time and has been for twenty years now is Ghost by treetog (Pixtudio) <img src="https://cdn.stardock.us/forums/

[quote who="Jafo" reply="4" id="3980715"] Once upon a time I made a 'cursor' which was 2 lines...1 vertical and 1 horizontal as a 'cross' that could pan over the screen like crosshairs. Needless to say the 'cursor' had to be twice the size of the screen resolution in both axes, and was one massive drag on performance.... and that was probably when the screen res was 800x600 [XGA]. Systems these days are faster...but screen res is bigger...probably same drag..... [e digic

I have a 4K x 40" monitor and even the largest default Windows cursor was getting lost on the screen, so I purchased CursorFX 4 (early 2020) in order to get a larger cursor that wouldn't get lost. I really enjoyed having a variety of cursors available on WinCustomize. I changed my cursor quite often, as there were new cursors to choose from every week. Creating a new cursor for CursorFX 4 was one of the first projects I worked on for WinCustomize. I have been using <a href="https://www.w

It makes no difference if "Do not offset the menu horizontally to ensure it lines up with the start button" is turned on or off. I believe this only affects the Start11 menu if the Start button is on the left. It should be obvious from my post above with the images what is going on. I don't think I can explain it any clearer.

I have also seen this behavior in the Windows 10 style. Not sure why it happens, but it's a minor issue for me. When the All Apps menu is opened, it is left justified of the Start button, and the first time opening the Start menu following the use of the All Apps menu, the Start menu is right justified of the Start button. The second time it is opened, it is centered again. The Windows 10 style appears to be the only style with this behavior. Perhaps there is an easy fix for t

Start buttons are PNG images with three equal height frames. The top frame is NORMAL, the middle frame is HOVER, and the bottom frame is OPEN. A good place to start is a PNG image 40 px wide by 120 px tall. Stardock has a Start Button Creation tool which can be found here. https://support.stardock.com/space/SHC/1430192142/Start+button+creation+tool <img src="https://cdn.stardock.

[quote who="VTMNC" reply="3" id="3980147"] Makes no sense for me to scale up popup menus.... scaling should be only for the start menu [e digicons]:frogboy:[/e] [/quote] Context menus are scaled based on the widest link in the menu. In this case "Open menu on this page for current desktop." The only way you are going to get smaller context menus is to use a different font for menus.

I use OneDrive to back up my computer, and have for years. I am using Fences 6.0.3.1 and don't have this issue. The backup does not cause my fences to revert to the Desktop. Also, you are not required to back up anything to OneDrive except your Windows Settings in order to enroll in the Extended Support for Windows 10. You can turn off the Desktop sync by following the directions below. Click the OneDrive icon in your System Tray and then the Setting icon in the top ri

Manually sorting doesn't work in Folder Portals, but in a normal Fence right-click inside the Fence and choose Sort by: None. Now, you should be able to drag shortcuts in any order you like.

[quote who="Abisnabidam" reply="10" id="3980011"] From the current release of 2.5.5.4, with Win11 Version 24H2 (OS Build 26100.6584), I'm also not seeing the issue. I've set the settings you specified, then hovered over open applications on the taskbar with the mouse. This is producing the normal preview window, and the icons remain intact - no blank thumbnails.

[quote who="basj" reply="8" id="3979976"] Sorry to hear you are having issues. I can not reproduce this issue on my Windows 11 24H2 (OS build 26100.6725) with Start11 v2.5.5.4. Perhaps its due to different Windows version? [/quote] I'm just going to stick with 2.5.3.1 for now and see if anyone else reports this.

There seems to be an issue with 2.5.5.4 that when an app is open, hovering over the app in the taskbar manifests an Explorer icon with a blank thumbnail. I have rolled back to 2.5.3.1 which alleviates this issue and the Group texture issue I reported here https://forums.stardock.com/538357/page/1/#3979058 FYI: 2.5.5.3 didn't have this issue, so it was introduced with 2.5.5.4. Windows 22631.5909; Start11 2.5.
