Reply to SkinStudio dark explorer missing options in WindowBlinds Stardock Forums

Hi SimplexDesigns, I'm looking the issue and I was able to reproduce it. One thing that I would like to mention is that, that setting specifically, only work on Windows 10, it will not work on Windows 11, there's no way to set a custom color for the Explorer background on Windows 11, due the changes that Microsoft did to the OS. On Windows 11 the Explorer background will be either white or a very dark grey, almost black, depending on the mode set in the OS.

@ Psych0sis Can I have a copy of that particular skin and also know what's your Windows version (10, 11)? I understand that you didn't had the issue with Start10 but things changed a lot recently, Microsoft changed a lot of things in the taskbar, so it's natural that Start11 has to adapt to the changes too. (I'm talking from a designer point of view, I'm not a developer). I'm asking for this info to try reproducing the issue over here, so it's very important to have the s

@ Psych0sis Make sure you have the "Show desktop button" set in SkinStudio. Go to: Edit Startmenu and Taskbar > Edit Horizontal taskbars > Taskbar buttons > Show desktop button There, if you have the image setup and still see the issue, go to the "Extra settings" tab and try switching the "Blend against the taskbar" setting on and off to see if help. If you still have the issue, you can send me the skin and I can take a closer look for you.

@bachbeet are you running any custom DPI? (Settings App > Display > Scale & Layout > Scale) Is the Scale value 100% or other value? This could cause some text distortions depending on the monitor. Does you skins has a lot of custom fonts setup? I can't reproduce the issue here:

Reply to 1px gap between button background and frame top edge in Curtains Stardock Forums

Hi there Mister, long time no see! Curtains has two way of editing the titlebar buttons 1 - Using the Buttons section: this method is more limited and will mostly change the basics of how the Windows buttons look. 2 - Using the Advanced Section: Here you need to edit the code by hand but you can change the position and experiment with some of the WB code. Please notice that there is separated sections for the buttons background and glyphs, but you can use 1 oth
