Just another problem I should have reported a long time ago. It has followed me through the last year or so of any updates so I don't know if it's just me or if it's just something no one else has reported or I just didn't find the reports when I searched. Anyways 99.9% of the time if I have Stardock Central OR WinCustomize application skinned when I'm browsing through the new Skins and Themes, the Large Preview window will disappear (not really gone just not accessible at the moment).

Hiya, I'm totally loving this program as I have now for a few years, but there is something that would really make my updating and browsing using the WinCustomize browser extension much faster and easier. Have the numbers in the parenthesis that show how many new updates since you last checked allow us to see them in each subfolder so we can tell actually which subcategory got the updates instead of always having to load the whole main folder to get rid of the numbers and see w
It worked perfectly, thanks so very much for that program tip, I now have tons of backgrounds that I won't have to do manually :)
can you explain what that means, it sounds familiar, but I haven't worked with a lot of batch conversions in a very long time, probably since not long after getting into windows and out of dos lol. what is irfanview? **EDIT** I googled it and found the software, thanks so much I'll give this a try and see how it goes, if this does what the site says it will do, this will solve the issue completely. Thanks :)
Sorry took so long, I've been gone on vacation and just returned. Well hmm, I have a lot of .gif files that are very suitable for backgrounds, what about giving us the option at least to use them if 'we' want to rather than choosing it for us? :P Seriously though, there are so many it would take me hours to just constantly load them each up into a graphics program just to save them into .jpg format for usage. Isn't there some way to give us this option? Let us at least see wh
Hiya, I'm trying to use some images I have stored on my computer as .gif as wallpaper but they don't show up in the Wallpaper Changer in WindowBlinds at all. I've had to go in and save them in .jpg in a graphic program for them to show up at all in the Wallpaper listings of WindowBlinds. Is this supposed to be this way? And is there any way I can get the .gif to show up? I sure don't want to have to go in and convert all these graphics just for this since I use them for many
I don't know if this will help any or if you've already done this, but I had this same problem to an extent when I first installed OD plus and realized I had some of the little arrows still active on the mouseover section and had to disable them all first before the stay on top would stay off the top lol. In the Hotspots I had the bottom one still checked for some reason so no matter what I set the stay on top to it wouldn't keep the setting. Once I removed that Hotspot setting it went away...
Hiya Hinano, Well the only problem with that is that I 'want' the minimize to tray on for things not off. You can turn that on and off in the windowblinds options actually as to whether you want it to minimize apps to the tray or not. The problem is so far only with Firefox though not minimizing correctly and doing exactly what you said, minimizing to both yet not minimizing at all. Shows up both in the system tray and on the task bar but then pops back open right away. I wa
I understand that Zubaz, but considering the major popularity of FF over the other alternative browsers, I am almost sure it's the most used browser outside of IE so I would actually think Stardock would be accomodating things like that. In all actuality there really are only 3 to 4 major browsers out there, so its not like there are 20 or 30 to work around. I do know how it is to have to work around a billion little things like different programs that utilize it, I'm sure many are not even co
I got the minimize to tray addon and it works, as long as I disable skinning on Firefox which I guess will have to do for now lol, kinda sucks since the skinning is most of the reason I bought Object Desktop to start with lol. anyways thanks for the help guys, hopefully someone will fix this problem since people been asking for fixes since the beginning of the year I would think they are working on one but who knows.
thanks I'll look into that addon rabidrobot and see if it helps out.
Nope not yet, started here first
Thanks for some replies here, unfortunately, I had no problem with it minimizing before the new 2.0 version of FF at all. Used to minimize same as anything else did so althought it 'may' well be in FF that the problem lies, it still needs to be addressed I would think since there are a vast majority of people using FF nowadays. I do hope something is fixed for this, it's quite irritating to say the least lol. Thanks again for the replies, hopefully someone that 'does' know what is or isn't be
BUMP No one out there that works with this program can answer anything on this? Nothing was settled previously about this problem either so what do I do please? Would be most helpful if someone would at least answer even if it's to say you are not sure what the problem is and are working on it or anything at all rather than nothing.
Hiya, I did a search and found some old posts from the beginning and middle of this year that had this same problem so I figured I better post again. I'm having trouble with Firefox minimizing to system tray. The icon goes there, the window minimizes for a fraction of a second then returns back to maximized again. Goes so fast you can hardly tell it actually tried to minimize lol. Windows IE7 works fine, most other things so far seem to be fine, just Firefox doesn't want to
Replying to my post here again lol, wasn't sure if I should add on to the last one or what but this may be cleaner. I went ahead and installed Firefox and guess what? Works like a charm! I was obviously not getting the downloads at all before as this time it opened a new page to click a download link on and allowed me to download it both via saving it or loading it with theme manager. Didn't get this page before at all. My guess is that the browser being used by SDC is bas
As I said I was able to download the components separately and manually piece the theme suite ChristmasTime together and am using it now. So yes I can download things separate. **Bug just found in SDC Discussion setup, enter key wouldn't function when trying to post my reply for this via the software** IE 7 recognizes the theme mgr for the .suite because it's opening it and putting the suite's name into the list and showing the picture, just that the files it is downloading ar
hmm longer than I've had this problem.. I think.. dunno how I would test to see if that's the problem or not other than to try maybe firefox which I can install. Not sure how I would go about putting IE 6 back on since 7 is now the default in Windows Update even.
Thanks so much for answering this question, I was about to go post about this myself but thought I'd see if I could find the answer somewhere first. Is nice to be able to browse the forums right in SD Central, very slick and made perusing them kinda nice lol. Anyways thanks as this answer fixed it for me too <a href="https://www.stardock.com/products/sdcentral/" title="Posted via Stardock Central
downloading via the website for wincustomize. Version is the most recent version... (goes to load it to check number lol)... 2.30a.042 I didn't have this problem up until around a month or so ago, I used to use the download buttons on the wincustomize site to add new suites and they would just automatically be added into my theme manager setup. Not sure what happened or changed that this isn't working now. Win XP Pro (updated fully on a regular basis and as of yesterday).</P
Hiya, I have been trying to get some new suites from the Wincustomize website for a few weeks or more, and even though it shows that they are downloading, and the name itself will temporarily show up in the Theme Manager suite section as if it loaded in there and installed, there is no theme there to apply. Nothing shows up in the box that usually shows the stuff it downloaded such as wallpaper, icons etc. for the suite except the picture showing the full theme graphic but the main box
