Problem with Windowblinds and Opera 10.5

i second this. win7 pro x64 here.

yes have the same problem. Deleting autoinstall.win everytime and editing the colorsection in operaprefs.ini helps somewhat.

[Colors]
Color.Normal=#000000
Background=#ffffff

seems to work as long as you don't minimize/maximize.

Same here,allways had a problem with opera's window changing position each time i opened it ,it was a different size.Without windowblinds its fine so i use opera's skins and its fine.

I had the same problem with Opera 10.50's title bar getting messed up when running WB7 and found a solution using the 'Opera Launcher' at this web site. http://my.opera.com/Tamil/blog/opera-launcher 

It launches Opera and fixes the title bar problem and backs up a bunch of the opera files at the same time (bookmarks, contacts, etc.)

Hope this helps.

EDIT: OperaLauncher lets you disable the title bar. When you do, the min/max/exit buttons are no longer displayed. I guess you exit Opera using the menu or the 'big O'.

EDIT: April 3,2010 --- This 'fix' no longer works with the latest beta release of Opera. It worked in Opera 10.52.3337 but no longer works in 10.52.3344.

It states "Disable Title Bar" as an option. What then happens with the min/max/close buttons, grcobb?

I think I may of found a fix for Vista users

Settings ---> Advanced Settings  and tick box "I want to use Aero window frames but keep the rest of the skin"

SOLUTION (At least for me)

1. Launch Opera 10.5+ and minimize it to the task bar.
2. Launch WindowBlinds 7 Configuration.
3. Right click WindowBlinds 7 in the running task icon in the task bar and select 'Unload WindowBlinds.'
4. Once WindowBlinds has been 'unloaded,' select the skin you want to use from WindowBlinds 7 Configuration and click "Apply Changes."
5. Once the skin you selected is loaded, click on the minimized Opera window and the skin should be applied correctly.

[ALTERNATIVE SOLUTION]

If you don't want to unload WindowBlinds:

1. Minimize Opera.
2. Load one of the stock Microsoft 'Windows Aero' skins from within WindowsBlinds Configuration.
3. Once the stock 'Windows Aero' theme has loaded, select the alternative theme you want and click 'Apply Changes.'

I'm running Windows 7 (64Bit) and the latest build (as of 4/22/10) of both Opera and WindowBlinds 7.

I hope this was helpful.  Let me know.

There should be a WindowBlinds update (beta) later today which should address the Opera issue along with adding new features to WindowBlinds.

Hi is that update still comin?

read reply #8 deduce from that

That comment (Reply #8) is a few days old.  I'm not seeing how I can deduce an answer countering my original question.  If you can, please enlighten...

There has been two updates to Windowblinds already since the 22nd.  Check Impulse.
