so are you stardock employees a little worried about the fact that if microsoft goes and adds back the start menu and make it so the apps can run in window mode just like modernmix does, that you might lose costumers that have subscribed or bought the software?
1. chrome beta 2. windows 8.1 3. all of them 4. memory leak when loading pages causing browser to stop responding. with memory on one of chrome processes reaching 2.7gb sometimes happens while listen to music on youtube video and facebooking and would happen alot throughout the day. telling windowblinds not to skin chrome fixes the problem. extensions in chrome adblock plu
using windowblinds 8 on windows 8.1 my chrome browser beta updated to latest beta 32.0.1700.6 and skins are not showing the top of the browser. only show the tab. close buttons ect are invisible.
explorer.exe sometimes jumps to 12% usage randomly checked using process explorer and it show decor8_64.dll is causing it. logging out and logging fixes it. but randomly returns. edit: problem is on windows 8.1
in windows 8.1 rtm netflix wont play audio if a window of a program is showing on the screen. if you minimize the another program. then netflix plays the audio. I have the setting in modernmix to play audio in background but it still shuts the audio off.
sorry for the delay. I do have fences establish, left quater half of screen is hidden fence and trash is in a fence to get it from moving when changing resolutions. and they are all locked there was no other process running that was causing usage, antivirus was disable at the time.
in windows 8 task manager will show harddrive usage increase when moving mouse around desktop screen. climbs to 80% and drops as soon as mouse stops. it only happens on the desktop. not over windows disable fences and move mouse around desktop screen and problem doesn't show. enable fences again and move mouse around desktop screen and disk usage appears. using a logitech g5 mouse.
to add the ability to change the login screen background. sense xp you guys gave us the ability to change the login screen. but windows 8 login is the most ugliest vile screen I even seen. yeah we can change the lock screen, but really need a regular background instead of a solid color for the login screen.
still have this bug when I close utorrent. it wont close. instead the program freezes and every gui(taskbar, windows, task manager) starts to flicker. I have to hurry and use task manager to force close utorrent before the flickering starts. the problem goes away if I tell windowblinds not to skin it. but is that really a fix or just a bypass.
I tried 8.1 preview but there are some visual bugs with windowblinds. click on icons on taskbar and draging up to bring up the menu. it totally transparent or black.
my specs intel 2600 mem 16gb nvidia 580gtx 2 issues 1. I like using the diamond theme, but Im getting wasted space(gaps) between the border of the windows. if I snap the windows to the side. I get gaps along the edges. I can click the do not use per pixel frame and it fixes it. but then the top of the window splits it to sections. for example firefox where the glass is after the tab is a different color then

is there any concern with windowblinds 8 and windows 8.1(windows blue)
yay a thankyou thread.... yes thankyou stardock for making this great app. a hug for u. and some other stuff [e digicons]:inlove:[/e] .........
as title says netflix app audio only works if windows is active. I was hoping to use the netflix app while browsing online. but audio disables for the app when selecting other windows. I dont know if its a bug or a restriction. normally I just use browser to watch netflix but the modern app has better quality in sound and picture.
soooo.... any updates on the status of windowblinds 8?? been a while now
will themes for windows 7 work on windows 8?
downloaded and installed. love it [e digicons]:D[/e] will there be an option to make the tiles transparent?. that will be nicer then solid colors.
I [quote who="Frogboy" reply="2" id="3268045"]It's on our list. There's quite a bit of work involved to do it right since they got rid of Aero (including the blurred windows functionality).[/quote] I thought the same thing. but I dont really care for those effects just as long as I can use themes.
[quote who="Matt A Tobin" reply="65" id="3259982"]Aero != DWM. In Windows 8 DWM is the primary system used to process and render all UI elements on Windows 8. Everything that has come out of microsoft has been written either in WPF or DirectUI which is then tied into DWM for acceleration and composition. This is a change because previously DirectUI could stand on it's own without DWM. As for the older GDI calls they are crippled and once again not hardware acc
^^^^ and for me it supports older games better then windows 7 did. if you had a program that didnt support aero in windows 7 and caused it to disable it and go to basic, this problem doesnt exit in windows 8.
I would like to beta test too. Im using windows 8 only on my machine. using.... start8 fences beta winfx
when windowsblinds is released for windows 8, will it have the ability to had back aero?
when using any windowblinds theme and going to search for a file, the results are somewhat almost same color as background, so its hard to see, any fix?
