It's a glitch that has always happened between WindowBlinds and IE if you use transparency on your scrollbar thumbs. Instead of honoring the transparency, it appears to pull a copy of the background up and down with it.


There is no fix that I know of. I just try to avoid using transparency there. For example, if I want to have rounded ends on the scrollbar background, I incorporate the rounded parts into the scroll button images instead of the scroll background itself. That way I don't need to use transparency on the scrollbars.

Also,the disabled tray state is always cut off at the top.

.tga's were what I was using...still makes no difference what I use...bitmaps,trans no trans,...still drags the upper part of the tray down (and obscures the bottom pixels)

the image has an inner shadow and inner bevel with texturing...cant make a button that blends with that

one more problem...if the list of files is really long...the slider switch runs up under the top and bottom of the tray,and obscuring the top and bottom line of pixels of the tray...minimum slider size is set to 17(the size of the graphic)I've set the slider switch size to 16.17 and 18...no luck
