SKS/WB/IP/IE/ETC Questions

July 9, 2004 4:56:18 PM from WinCustomize ForumsWinCustomize Forums
1) The mouse-over text for IE/Explorer insists on being gray. Is it a glitch? If not, where's the color setting?

2) When including a default wall, I can't get it to load unless it's a BMP. Anyway to make it work with a JPG?

3) When including a default IconPackager theme, I can't get it to load. Is it because I'm using shareware versions or am I doing something wrong?

4) The Desktop icon in the explorer dialog skins at random. Bug?

One more questions. I added a button that I only want to show when the window is set to "Always on Top". Problem is, the button doesn't show right away. The user either has to mouse-over where the button is located or focus on another window before the butotn pops up. Anyway to fix that?

The particular shade of gray that it turns to doesn't even appear in the classic colors section.

Try to get a hold of pictoratus, he's really good with this kinds of questions, moreso than I am. It's something you can change if you can find it.

Which text are you talking about? If it is the text in the drop-down favorites menu, that is
Miscellaneous/Colors > Menus/Text-Menu

A. 2 #3: You have to have Active Desktop enabled. I don't know if it works on XP, but works for me.
