I was mainly saying it is Win11 that is ugly.... Win10 isn't as bad as you can still customize it somewhat with third party software.... unlike Win11 which is just awful.

Went back to Win10... 11 is absolute garbage, broken ugly bug infested junk, bit like Win10 really... only worse in every way

tell us more.. Win11 looks like shit especially when you go Dark Mode and find literally every application window built using winforms from the top to bottom is literally White.. those fking retards at MS. Especially when they go ahead and break the work of developers behind Curtains etc and any other ux theme patching efforts

Because a Windows 10 update bricked the pc, which happened a week ago so I just went full wipe and put Win11 on... I mean its not like MS is going to make there useless updates less shit for either OS at this point... though the lack of decent theming is giving me reason to go back.

omg .. win11 is so trash.. how are my eyes going to cope/ ... those blithering retards at MS can't even make a dark theme without failing to actually fix the legacy ui controls are still blinding white.. in dark mode.... At least in Win10 you could still fix certain old legacy ui controls.. or better use curtains.. now can't do anything except use dark mode, just about everything you use literally all WHITE from the titlebar to most the ui controls.. just loo

[quote who="DaveRI" reply="9" id="3806416"] I've done a simulation of what I think he's wanting to do - pack the buttons more closely together as opposed to just changing edge transparency around the image. Pretty sure you can't do it in Curtains (not sure you can still do it in WB on Win10?). Something like this: [/

Trying to get less padding space waste between each taskbar buttons... from what I can tell in curtains you can only do so much with adjusting the margins on the image button being used... there is no way to change the actual button spacing/padding distance between buttons... though I know it has possible just doesn't seem to be exposed in curtains.. is that right?

no the opposite I don't want it further apart.. I want less wasted space especially on the taskbar.. win10 is awful at spacing things out and wasting ui space everywhere.. So its not possible? I'm sure it is possible did something similar back in Win7 with Visual Style Builder

Would like to see better background handling for multiple monitors.

Is there any link to a well documented guide with images to show what each setting changes.. ie picture of file explorer with all the various areas that can be changed via curtains? something visually to see how it all works?

Controlling the padding distances around taskbar buttons? is it possible? like not the image padding but the actual padding space between buttons?

So I had object desktop, reformatted PC yesterday, and now all the programs on it are only Try, like I don't own them even the old versions when I had paid for Object desktop for all all of them. Now I only used Fences and Curtains... but if I buy Curtains separately.. is that just going to expire in a year? if so I won't bother as I can live with it. Not sure how it slipped past me that the object desktop I bought was only for a year., pretty bad you can't just use the old vers

Curtains is much better, more consistent in styling things, Windowblinds can be a mess for decent win10 themes... The themes in Curtains are pretty good, it's a shame that Windows itself now is such bad cluster fk of awful design, and difficult to theme properly due to it being such an ugly looking awful mess on the surface suggests the underlying code for it all must be eye sore.
