[quote who="sdRohan" reply="1" id="3967281"] Fixed: Tabbed Fences could momentarily show the previously selected tab showing during Page switching [/quote] This bug is fixed for me. much better[e digicons]:thumbsup:[/e]
New bug Any Fence portal linked to "my downloads" has a bigger scale then all my other fence portals and fences. That is the thumbnail images and font size is bigger in any of "my downloads" folder portals compared to the rest of my fences Edit - I was able to fix this by changing "view" back to "medium icons". After the update it just slipped out (nothing was selected at all somehow)
[quote who="RedneckDude" reply="17" id="3967068"] KVM is listed as a Pro function in MP4 for me. [/quote] Correct, but it is all the same as Multiplicity 3. They just have different names then before Multiplicity 3 KM = Multiplicity 4 (neither had KVM and both were the OD versions) Multiplicity 3 KVM = Multiplicity 4 pro Multiplicity 3 KVM Pro = Multiplicity 4 business The pricing for each hasn't changed too much for each tier.<
[quote who="btm52487" reply="9" id="3966796"] Got you thinking, right? 🙂 [/quote] Yeah I suppose the basic premise is to better define tabs. So far "segmented style" with "transparency" set to "on" nails it. But the challenge is bringing that to the other styles. It will be fun to see what the developer thinks
[quote who="btm52487" reply="6" id="3966781"] Here's another variant.... an option to wrap an outline around both the active tab area and the active title: [/quote] Looking at the screen shot I can tell having an outline for a tab does look good and this would include segmented tabs style as well. Aside from doing borders or changing opacity perhaps an easier approach (that would also look good) is simply making the inactive tabs lighter in color similarly to how "da
I think 100 percent opacity is the way to go here. Tabs look good so why not. (But I will never say no to more customizations none the less) You will probably still need a hover indicator of course so opacity could go down to 80 - 90 percent on mouse hover only As for active tab indicator, keep the faded font for inactive tabs. This works pretty good for me. That and color coded fences should make navigating tabs pretty easy.
[quote who="RedneckDude" reply="11" id="3966670"] So in effect, you are saying that if I still want to control up to 9 PC (KVM Pro) I will need to stay with Multiplicity 3? [/quote] Just to throw out there multiplicity 4 pro now controls 5 pcs where as the older Multiplicity 3 kvm only controlled one. It is a pretty good buy unless you do in fact have 9 pc's you need to control.
@ richfed If you are having troubles the first step is to verify your settings are correct 1.You will want to make sure you have do in fact have the new "tabs" option in settings and that it is "enabled". (In my screen sh
[quote who="richfed" reply="73" id="3966561"] At risk of sounding like a complete idiot, is there a way to migrate my current pre-version 6 'fences' to the 'tab' format? Or do I have to start over? If that is the case, how do I create a [new] tab? I read through this thread, but found no answers, and the tab menu in Fences 6 seems to only say, "to create a tab drop one fence on top of another." [By the way, I tried to do that by making two new fences and dropping one on top of the other,
[quote who="hedley1970" reply="1" id="3966440"] My desktop currently features a whole lot of fences where I keep links to all my files and programs. How will tabs improve on this? [/quote] A fence of course helps organize a growing number of programs, files, folders and even folder portals. Think of tabs as a way to organize a growing number of fences. With Tabs you can stack all your fences into different groups to save on space and clutter. Basically, this means yo

Here is my absolute favorite political scenario right now in a what if situation. In this scenario Donald Trump figures out how to give presidents 3 terms only to have Barrack Obama also take advantage of this. This situation creates a head to head battle between Trump vs Obama. That would be a really fun match up.
[quote who="JanOscar" reply="3" id="3965869"] It's not new - it's for Windowblinds 6 back in 2008. A lot have changed since then, but it still has some useful information. [/quote] That is quite old. I always wished someone would post youtube video tutorials myself because skin studio isn't very easy to figure out
I recently stumbled on this documentation for skin studio, maybe it is new? Section 7 may help https://www.stardock.com/products/skinstudio/help/toc.htm
[quote who="manuellaureano" reply="2" id="3965863"] Thanks for answer,but i need to know if Start 11 latest version support Windows 11 Pro. [/quote] When it comes to compatibility it is more in the update version then it is in pro versus home. With Start 11v1, I believe support ended with 23h2. It may still be compatible with 24h2 but I still would highly recommend start 11v2 as it is still in active development and will be updated for whatever changes Microsoft may throw to
It was an unofficial update from the start 11 team that allowed the two programs to work better together. What sections are disabled? I do believe certain taskbar features from start 11 are unusable if another program is altering the taskbar and thus should be disabled.

It isn't that unusual anymore Of course with the server crash there has been a bit of a delay with beta 2 being released. Hopefully development starts back up soon
[quote who="Jafo" reply="31" id="3965354"] One universal complaint over all that time.... it was becoming continuously evermore difficult/complicated to skin for Windows which led [partly] to a falling off of new blood to the sport.

I believe the OS has many elements to it that frustrate the skinning community and it would be nice to have a tool to alleviate some of these headaches. AI would be able to do a lot of tedi

[quote who="AeroPurple" reply="28" id="3965343"] Yes! And that's precisely why AI is the worst thing to use here - it literally can't feel emotions, and cannot create anything meaningful without copying already existing material. [/quote] Art isn't ever exactly 100 percent passion and emotion either though. If it were then we would just have random scribbles. Even artists have to follow rules and logic to create things that already exist in the world. Sure, AI
[quote who="Yarrago" reply="36" id="3965144"] Adding a drawing pin icon to the left of the 'x' (close) on tabs when roll-up is enabled seems more user friendly then double clicking the titlebar. But understand its more visual clutter so can understand the absence. [/quote] What about the idea of using the mouse wheel? When you scroll the mousewheel down then the rollup rolls down. When you scroll the mousewheel up the fence rolls up. I think that would work pretty good

Try navigating to a different tab then then the original opened tab and then switching p
If there is one piece of Stardock software that frustrates me it is definitely skin studio (props to all the skinners that have mastered it)... Sign me up for having AI do it for me. I bet that would increase the amount of new skins for Windowblinds by a lot!
As frustrating as this may have been for us Stardock users, I am sure that pales in comparison to how everyone within the company felt. It is very nice that you took the time to be transparent with this post. I am glad to see mostly everything up and running again
Welcome back Stradock, I'm really excited to see how the final product of Fences 6 turns out! This isn't a new issue but it is a little more noticeable with tabs When using pages: The animation when going from one page to another often shows the incorrect configuration For example, the wrong open tab will appear open only during the page switching animation. Or a rolled up fence will appear open during the page switching animation If I hide / unhide my fences v
