WinXP - windows blinds does not maintain transparency in WindowBlinds Stardock Forums

Old Windows Blinds customer, thinking of repurchasing - using the eval software on WinXP (company won't upgrade.. ugh) Using Diamond/diamond skin with transparency. It works fine, except that every morning, I return to my work PC and find the transparency has 'broken' and appears dark gray.

I found an app called ultra mon which seems to do the trick.

Multiple Monitors && Virtual Desktops in Object Desktop Stardock Forums

Something in my stardock package might already do this, but I haven't discovered it yet. So, is there a way to treat multiple monitors as distinct virtual desktops. Or phrased differently, can I display 2 virtual desktops - 1 on each monitor at the same time. I'd like a task bar on each which relates to the windows open on that screen.

Reply to WB - FireFox width issue in Object Desktop Stardock Forums

Here are some screen shots. The first is how fire fox will being to look with a 'hidden' vertical scroll bar, the second shows how the hidden items were really just stuck way out to the right.

WB - FireFox width issue in Object Desktop Stardock Forums

This one is rather hard to explain, and unfortunately I don't have a screen shot at the moment. Sometimes FireFox seems to set its internal client window width to wider than the actual firefox window which results in the vertical scroll bar being lost (off somewhere to the right). If I resize firefox to the size it thinks it should be or larger, everything is fine, but if I resize to a smaller size, I lose the scroll bar and any content is placed as though it is in a much wider

WB - print screen issue in WindowBlinds Stardock Forums

I have encountered another WB issue (thanks for everyone who helped with the screen corruption issue). Sometimes when I try to print screen / screen capture to paste a ss into some graphic application, I get an error message that states that windows is unable to get the contents of the clipboard. If I switch to the Win2K skin (maybe I will also try just switching to any skin other than the active) the problem goes away - although this usually results in half my open apps - includi

I'm now back up to ObjectBar + WindowBlinds (DogmaX3) + Windows FX (only using taskbar preview - no other added visual effects) without any noticeable problems for 4 days.

Reply to WB - Corrupt Display (transparency issues?) in WindowBlinds WinCustomize Forums

Everything is up to date - according to Windows Update and Dell Update. I had the issue again yesterday during the tail end of a ~12 hour development day even after switching to the 2K skin: Though I wonder, is that really the stripped down MS 2K skin, or is it a windows blinds version of the 2K skin... Today, I think I'm going to disable everything stardock and try reenabling thi

Reply to WB - Corrupt Display (transparency issues?) in WindowBlinds Stardock Forums

Switching skins didn't help - at least not to that skin. A corrupted screen was waiting for me Monday morning. I was in the office from ~0900 to ~1900 and the corruption happened again around 1800, forcing a reboot. I then switched over to the Win2K theme. No corruption yet this morning, but the Win2K theme is sehr stripped down. Chipset is up to date - as far as I can tell via dell and windows auto updating systems. ctfmon.exe is running (notice the 'f'). I'm taking the s

WB - Corrupt Display (transparency issues?) in WindowBlinds Stardock Forums

One of the problems I am having with this great product is that after a period of time my screen becomes corrupt and windows no longer seem able to properly redraw themselves. Sections of windows will not be filled in - often the window will appear as an empty frame. Minimizing and restoring the window will sometimes correct the issue, but the next time a different window receives focus, the problem reoccurs. Typical Corruption: <img src="http://img297.imageshac

After install and single reboot it wasn't functioning properly, but low and behold today it is always on top.

Taskbar Preview - always on top? in WindowFX Stardock Forums

Sorry if this has been discussed, the forum search feature seems to be down at the moment. The Taskbar Preview is very cool, but is easily obscured by other windows. Is there a way to set it to always on top / z-index+ ?
