WindowBlinds 10 on Windows 10

Reply to WindowBlinds 10 Beta Thread in WindowBlinds WinCustomize Forums

Still no icon in system tray with the latest beta however I pinned WB and SS to the taskbar so I can live with that. Checking the option under settings "Show icon in the system tray for easy access to WindowBlinds settings" does not stay checked even if you apply a skin or reboot.

[quote who="Uvah" reply="11" id="3608504"] Could be my screen. At 1366 x 768 its a bit small compared to others. Might the size be the minimal? [/quote] You are not alone Uvah. I have the same resolution and I cannot resize. Part of my UI always stays under my taskbar.

[quote who="RedneckDude" reply="3" id="3608463"] Ken, check the box, then go back to the skins and hit apply. [/quote] Does not work for me. I check the box, go and click on apply style to desktop but when I close the ui and open it the box is unchecked. If no one else is experiencing this I will try reinstalling windowblinds.

I am not sure if this is something WB dealt with in the past but on blinds that have white system tray backgrounds such as Adni18's white christmas blind the tray icons remain white so you cannot see them. Also when I check the option to show the windowblinds icon in system tray it does not take effect for me. If I check the box and close the windowblinds UI when I open it again the box is unchecked. I do not see a save button but I assume it should not revert back to the box bein

I am just saying I used it and was able to make changes to skins.

Like I said I paid under $700 Canadian which is like $500 US dollars for my LG 60". I was not planning on buying an LG. I wanted either a Samsung or Panasonic because it is well known that they make the best TV's.

One thing to be careful of if you buy a Plasma is burnin. They say that new Plasmas are less likely to get burnin but they still can get it. Make sure to go to your options if it is a LG and and under the ISM Method choose Orbitor. This slightly moves pixels around to help prevent burnin, Also do not watch standard definition channels for prolonged periods of time. If the image does not fill the screen (6.9) you will get a burnin in the center of your screen where the 4.3 ratio picture was. I

I have 3 setups. I have a 5.1 setup in the basement and a separate 2 Chanel setup in another room plus my desk setup. Contrary to what some will say, you do not have to spend your life savings to get a decent picture or sound. That does not mean that I buy cheap box store products. I try to find great deals on second hand gear. There are some things that I bought new such as my 60" Plasma but I usually buy speakers and even amplifiers used because you can get more for your money. You just hav

Reply to Question for WindowBlinds users in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

I don't bother with OS. I downloaded some very old skins that have worked fine with no issues or very minor issues I could live with. I don't usually keep anyone blind active for very long anyway and if there is one that will not work it is easily deleted.

[quote who="RedneckDude" reply="61" id="3605756"] I have to wonder, especially since Gef hasn't been back, if maybe Gef made the screenshot in Photoshop and doesn't actually have a start menu that looks like that. After all, it isn't that hard to do. SydneySiders often posts screenshots where the wall overlaps the start menu, done with a graphics program. Just saying, it wouldn't be that hard to fabricate that scre
