Ok, the regressions are not worth it, will have to redo back to using system styles.

Updated 1.2-REDSTONE http://startisback.com/StartIsBackPlusPlus_setup.exe - Added fallback to font styles from system skin parts StartMenuKeyBoardComposited::TreeView, StartMenuCompositedMFU::ListView, StartMenuPlaceListComposited::ListView - NSCHost now does not use fill color and always composites against part background - NSCHost now supports HOTTRACKING text color

Some properties from them will be used as fallback (composited, hottracking color?) only for compatibility for current skins. All properties must reside in StartPanelComposited::StartPanelPriv, it makes no sense to spill them - other parts were used to behave like Win7, but they're no longer in aero.msstyles. PandaX may just include definition of those parts into Win10 classmaps from Win7.

Ok, I'll have to add fallbacks to be compatible with TH2 themes, and for NSCHost add support for hot tracking color, drop the necessity of fillcolor (just use part background picture). Which skins I need to tailor for?

Version ++1.2-REDSTONE http://startisback.com/StartIsBackPlusPlus_setup.exe Support Windows 10 build 11082: - Fixed Start screen shortcut not working - Fixed strings missing - Fixed badly composited fonts StartIsBack no longer uses JumpListPane::ListView, StartMenuCompositedMFU::ListView, StartMenuComposited::ListView, StartMenuKeyboardComposited::TreeView system skin parts. Composited and font properties must be specified in StartPanelComposited::StartPanelPriv parts.

There is a way to disable immersive menus for File explorer: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\FlightedFeatures] "ImmersiveContextMenu" = (REG_DWORD) 0

What other two problems? Which theme are you using?

Moved discussion with MDJ to beta channel topic. (btw: I'm unable to reproduce your bug, please record a video if possible).

Changed the way Cortana search bar is drawn on taskbar to look composited and not just color blob http://startisback.com/StartIsBackPlusPlus_setup.exe

That setting also affects mouse click.

Set 'When I press Windows key' to 'Show Start screen'.

Use Add... link on Appearance page.

It supports both third-party msstyles and built-in (Windows 7) as well. Maybe your taskbar is just too dark?

StartIsBack ++1.1.9 (to-be ++1.2) http://startisback.com/StartIsBackPlusPlus_setup.exe - New: partial taskbar skinning! Windows 7 skin enhanced with taskbar skin - Improved start menu display performance - Critical fix: StartIsBack causing windows animations chopiness - Critical fix: Some items are not opening propertly from start menu search results - Minor changes: * Adjusted French language metrics * Fix start button orb going below start menu * You can create "StartPane_MinHeight" DWORD in registry to tweak minimal start menu height

Added support for TaskBand2CompositedSmallIcons::TaskBand2 part Added support for TrayNotify*::Button 3-state images (sizing is still hardcoded, unfortunately) http://startisback.com/StartIsBackPlusPlus_setup.exe Aaand I think that's it for 1.2.

Okay, I will add support for other states (or just small icons?) for full msstyles. Tray flyout button is tempting, since it's easier to do, but what about notify icons, clock, etc? Are they supported by Win10?

I chose not to. Vertical images are already contained in Taskband2Composited::TaskBand2 and I don't see how small icons texture should be different from large icons texture, if taskbar texture does not differ. Or you do have skins with different small and large icons textures? Or does this break skins?

Added support for Taskband2Composited::TaskBand2 skin part http://startisback.com/StartIsBackPlusPlus_setup.exe

Ok, here we go. Taskbar skinning! http://startisback.com/StartIsBackPlusPlus_setup.exe StartIsBack++ adds back support for Taskbar2Composited::TaskBar skin part support for lite and full msstyles. Included Windows 7 skin now comes with Windows 7 taskbar background.

Okay, I'm convincied.

Sorry for the trouble. www.startisback.com will be restored ASAP.

I don't see themeable taskbar in Start10. Texture is not skinning. Show me where it looks good.

http://startisback.com/StartIsBackPlusPlus_setup.exe This version contains fix for French launguage pane sizes

That doesn't look good. Try this version and report your experience: http://startisback.com/StartIsBackPlusPlus_setup.exe

There has been some reports on this issue. Do you use some skin or high contrast theme?
