A quick tip if you're noticing that Explorer is using too much CPU time. On my system I was seeing Explorer using upwards of 90% CPU time, bringing my PC to a crawl. I didn't want to uninstall WB so I tried tweaking the settings a bit. In the end I found that if I disabled "Skin the quicklaunch taskbar buttons" in the Basic Settings tab that it stopped going bananas and everything went back to normal. Give it a try. D
All of the old APIs are still there, the new stuff is just strapped on top of it. Typical MS.
Take a look at https://forums.stardock.com/?ForumID=167&AID=94472 post #5. It seems that themes created for WB4 are missing a field that was added with WB5. Do I hear a release of 5.1 coming soon?
I've been experiencing this too, Windows XP Pro & Home (two different systems), WB5 eval. On both systems I'm using the A White Christmas theme. On both systems I have the taskbar on the *left*, about an inch wide and locked in place. When I hit maximize the windows *usually* move to a position that puts them approximately the taskbar's width to the left of where they should be and a small bit higher up than they should be. Perhaps this information might help? Damien
