Windowblinds 6.1 and Vista Window Previews (thumbnails)

Vista Window Previews (thumbnails) transparency frame

Published on March 6, 2008 By SurfaceOfTheEye In Stardock Support General

I remember when Windowblinds 6 came out, the Vista Window Previews used to have a transparent frame.

They no longer do for me in Windowblinds 6.1. I am wondering if there is a setting in Windowblinds itself that needs to be changed or would it be in Windows Vista? Or, is this something that needs to be fixed at a later date?

I hope you understand what I am talking about... I just hate to appear like I don't understand what I am talking about for I do.

The transparent edge was a case of WB not painting something.

WB 6.02 added a section for these parts and gives control to the skin author. If the skin does not have the part defined then WB paints a dialog colour edge as we had complaints about the transparent edge.
