Window spacing problem with Ventanas

May 8, 2020 11:57:41 AM from WinCustomize ForumsWinCustomize Forums

I loaded the WB Ventanas by 2of3 and the problem I'm having is if I drag a window to the top of the screen it drops the whole window down about a half inch. If I go full screen everything is fine.

I would like to know if it's me or an easy way to fix before I notify Tim of my problem.

In the picture this is how far I can drag the window to the top of the screen.

Hello, from what I can see from it. It was design to be like that. There are transparent strip around all the perpixel frames. But the best person to answer you is still Tim.

Thank you,

Yes, he put some "Big, Really Big" shadows around the window frames.  They're in the frame images, you'd have to crop them out and adjust all the related margins and positioning.

Thanks guys. I think he might have done that to the start menu too. It's pretty far off the side of the screen. I'll take a look.

I see the problem with the spread of the shadows on the frame. I could do some modifying and reup the skin.

In the meanwhile, go into the WB config and select "do not use per pixel frames" in the settings. It won't be as smooth on the corners, but it will fix your problem.

For what it's worth those shadows did look great though.  They did cause a couple of problems.  The line between "personal preference" and "something that should be fixed" is sometimes blurry to me.

Thanks Tim. I did turn off per pixel frames. I doesn't look that bad, but just have to remember to turn it back on for other skins. 

I just needed to know if it was me or the skin.

I absolutly agree. They were causing problems for me when trying to grab a windows under another...the shadows got in the way.

Anyway, I've reduced the shadows by half....now the skin goes into moderation....which could take forever....

 

2of3 wonders if PM button is broken on the site...

Hey Tim I don't think it's broken. I think the alert that you have a PM is broken. I just checked my messages and I received one from someone 3 hours ago and wasn't notified.

Just like the alert for subscriptions is broken, reported, and as far as I can tell, ignored.
