Some small things I've run across

Published on November 13, 2005 By Frank Thomnpson In WindowBlinds

Here are some of the things I've found with the new Beta:

1. When you go into the windowblinds configuration screen and click the "Advanced settings..." in the "User Overrides" section and try to over ride the default double click action, nothing changes. regardless of what I set this to, it is always the skins default.

2. when you tell it to always use the taskbar from a specific theme, it would be nice if you could choose a substyle instead of being limited to the taskbar from the default substyle for that skin. (not really a bug, just a feature suggestion).

That's pretty much it. I'm still anxious to get the version of WinFX that will work with 5 as I have a wide screen and like to limit my maximized windows to 1600px wide so I have some desktop realestate always visible, but I'm sure you guys are doing your best.

Keep up the good work

Hey, Frank! I just tried out the user overrides thing that you say doesn't work for you. Well, it works for me. Of course, you are clicking on "apply changes" before you try out the override, right?

I agree on the WindowFX getting finished ASAP, I like the limit max window size too! Hope you figure out the glitch you have with the double-click action!

Thats' odd that you got it to work (not calling you a liar by any means). I have three computers I have access to all running WindowBlinds. Allof them exibit the same problem when I try to set the double click action to "set always on top". I'll have to examine what I am running on all three and see if it's another program that is causing the bug. Thans for your reply

P.S. yes I am clicking "apply changes"
