Precision Skin

from Stardock Forums

I really like this skin because of the simplicity and clean look it has and it would be perfect if I could remove the space below the menu bar.

There's got to be somebody who knows how to fix this?

don't think this is a WB thing but a blind thing. pretty sure it has to do with margins and caption sizing, but...

I have the blind loaded on Win 7 64 bit and I'm not getting that effect. Are you perhaps using WB v 7.2?

I looks like a bug in the latest WB build. Like I said, I don't have it using Windowblinds 7.1

7.19 was a beta, right? I was having toolbar issues with that version too.

I'd suggest you roll back to WB 7.1.

I figured it out :)

In Skin Studio under Popup menus, Menu item, Extra Settings
Menu Width Padding and Menu Height Padding were set to 7 by default but it said default was supposed to be 0. When I set it to 0 my annoying problem disappeared. Thanks for all your responses

probably a menu padding issue :w00t:
