Check your Button alignment. For the Close button, the offset will be approx. 27,6

Once you see it, you can tweak it to get it where you want.

WOW, nice looking blind!

Good luck with your construction and I would love to take this for a test drive as soon as you finish it!

Have you read and practiced any of the tutorials available?

In your screenshot at the upper left where you are on the Button tab, if you click on the Explorer tab you will see Window Borders - PerPixel as the second item down.

Expand that by clicking on the plus sign and the next item down from that will be Buttons.

Those are the PerPixel Buttons that vStyler spoke of earlier.

per pixel buttons have to be moved to be seen..........in their alignment settings. If your not seeing your buttons once you have applied your skin, then it COULD be the perpixel buttons you are having problems with.

Also Ive noticed you only have 4 buttons showing......normally there are about 13 or so, and there is a way to only have 4 like you do. (I dont know how that is done....apparently there is a technique to that, )

maybe somewhere along the line that is why your buttons are not showing up.

For perpixel buttons, they also need to be in a set of 8 for each button. normal, pressed, mouseover and 5 disabled buttons.

The titlebar buttons only need to be a set of 3. normal, mouseover, pressed, and then another set for disabled.. disabled, disabled, mouseover.

i hope this has helped.
