[quote]By the way, I don't get the animation on the start menu either. I've looked in SKS6, and I know what it's suppose to look like (AWESOME), but it doesn't translate into the applied skin. I still can't figure out why the name shows up, either. That has me totally stumped.[/quote] Hmm need some help on this one... anyone? last time i did a start menu animation it was for XP and that worked dont know why it wouldn't this time...... and works on vista but not xp something smells

[quote]There is no actual magic pink IN the image itself....not sure where that pink is coming from, but with those boxes checked it goes away.[/quote] There is 2 ways to do the srollbar gripper.. thru the arrow pic or the glyph pic... the magic pink shines thru the arrow pic... and i use a glyph on there gonne check if those boxes are checked... mabye ive missed it because i havent seen any pink on my system at any time... :) the quick fix is to re-apply the skin then it should go aw

Only SD apps?... have you pixel mapped your screen? what res are you on and what does your comp put out. And some HDTV sets are just a pain in the a** to get to display correct from a computer, cuz it sounds like its a prob with the tv not the apps per se other than being coded to large for your HD-ready tv. ;)
[quote]Looks like your having fun with it, one word about frame animation, imo.. might should try to keep it from being overdone, hard to work with windows that are obtrusive in their animation.[/quote] Yeah hehe.. im adding a small glowing button in the top left corner as a marker for activated window.. And thanks :)
Solved! looking at perpixel frames in the uis file it seems sks had added a glyph(?!?) which wasnt visible in sks glyph tab... but anyway deleted the entry and all is well ;)
hmm New findings on the phantom picture! i put the orginal non animated frames back and the problem is still there.... have to dig into the uis file...
well im still having problems :( I get the animation to loop correctly and it uses the last frame for the inactive window titlebar and dont animate that. But i get this glitch where it puts another of the blinds pics in the middle of the titlebar (dead center about 10-20px wide, it varies if i up or down the frame count) and it loops that picture from left to right also.... I now have 20 frames on all sides up,down,left,right... if i put 19 in the image count and 20 in
[quote]I used png's converted to tga for the images (for the Agua blind), and you have to make the animation frames for all the window parts, top, bottom and sides, all with the same frame count.[/quote] Didnt animate the sides.. probably the problem i thought you didnt need to animate the whole window just the part you wished.... Ill try iy out now! Thx Xiandi :)
[quote]It even says *****Change ME***** in the description[/quote] It is supposed to say that to keep a smile on your face while skinning... who said programmers dont have a sense of humor ;D
How do you do it? Have all frames both in horz and vert tga's 29 frames all in all... even have NWA vert and horz... cant get it to work.. And found a bug while trying to get it to work... in the extra tab put frame count to 0 and SKS crashes... good thing i saved my stuff :D Any help appreciated! or point me in the right direction... search turns up nothing for me...
[quote]Actually they will get resized if text\content margins aren't set correctly accross the board for all taskbar elements.[/quote] Ok good to know, ill have to check em then.. used another blind for template som might be that.... And no heh a dancing username wasnt the plan [e digicons]:grin:[/e]
Looks like one mean green machine that! [e digicons]:grin:[/e] But the username is still there hmmmmmm.. i thought i had it at -2000 or something in margins have to check it again... dammit
I would if i had XP.... [e digicons]:\[/e]
Great [e digicons]:thumbsup:[/e]

Some blinds have this in them many dont.... But you can change it to whatever you want in the " Look & Feel ---> sub tab Explorer backgrounds " tab in the windowsblinds configuration.
yeah it needs to be a loop frames go like this 1234543212345432 etc.
[quote]The selection image can have 3 or 6 frames. If you only supply 3 then WB creates the other 3 on the fly from the original. If you want more control then you can supply 6.[/quote] Yes ive noticed but the on the fly created frames displays wrong, it does not with 6 frames... trans, alpha, vert checked. Here's a screenie i upped the contrast so its easier to see... <img src="http://i44.tinypic.com/nwzf2e.jpg" alt="select" width="216" heig
