making the title bar more distinct

August 23, 2020 1:34:46 AM from Stardock ForumsStardock Forums

I really like the "combine if possible" option.   When on a laptop it is a great way to save space.  That said, I often forget I have a window with multiple tabs open already and still open another.   Perhaps a good visual clue would be to bring a translucency *option* to the title bar?  It would also make that ugly circa-Windows NT flat color title bar look a bit nicer?

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. But if you have Stardock's Curtains with Style that have Groupy tabs skinned. It should look better. BTW those greenish tint change as your wallpaper change color.

Thanks for your reply.   I am not having a problem with Groupy I am suggesting a change to how visible the consolidated tabs look.  

I don't want to use curtains - it is simply aesthetic.  Groupy adds significant functionality to windows and helps my workflow.

The screenshot I attached was intended for a developer or product manager that might be reading.


Thanks for Groupy.

Unfortunately changing the application titlebar itself would be a significant amount of work as you cannot simply make part of an application transparent easily.
