helmutcheese Posted January 12, 2014 Posted January 12, 2014 I was 100% happy with this in Win 8 (paid for it after 30secs of use) but in Win 8.1 I always got issues with a blue-ish taskbar but think its something to do with the way I installed it.Can I have a look at this "final" build with installer please? If it can look the way it did by default in Win 8 ( minus blur as you said its cannot be done) I be happy and hopefully Classicshell can add blur as I am not installing a 3rd App to do so.
raiden89 Posted January 12, 2014 Posted January 12, 2014 Only problem I saw so far is that Glass doesnt stay when you use AeroRainbow to change the colorization. The glass almost goes away completely especially for active windows. Not sure if thats something that could be fixed in AeroGlass or if its AeroRainbow's problem.
bigmuscle Posted January 12, 2014 Author Posted January 12, 2014 I guess it is because AeroRainbow sets color alpha value to 255 (which means fully opaque) which is inconsistent how the colorization color should be generated.
raiden89 Posted January 13, 2014 Posted January 13, 2014 I see. So it's most likely an issue that AeroRainbow's developers will have to look into?
neiio Posted January 13, 2014 Posted January 13, 2014 (edited) Hey bigmuscle, congrats on such a great project. Is there any way I could get in on the installer version for Win8.1. I'm a themer and could find it useful in creating/porting some themes, as well as advertising for your product. Just a thought. Thanks anyways, much respect. I also donated 6€ today.

raiden89 Posted January 13, 2014 Posted January 13, 2014 Loool sup Neiio. Im Raiden1989 on dA. Figured I'd see you on here after we discussed this handy tool for 8.1.

ace2 Posted January 13, 2014 Posted January 13, 2014 (edited) MY Glass Theme (No Blur) using WinaeroGlass.exe and Snowy8 theme with Glass borders and NO DWMGlass.dll. Edited January 13, 2014 by ace2
NoelC Posted January 13, 2014 Posted January 13, 2014 Hi BigMuscle, I reported a visual glitch to you via eMail. Very occasionally some small parts of a window, often near the borders or title bars but not always, turn briefly transparent (not translucent). I see this so infrequently (e.g., once or twice a day) that it's been near impossible to tell whether it has anything to do with Aero Glass. Nothing is logged in your debug.log.My gut feeling is that this is a display driver problem that appeared when I installed ATI Catalyst 13.12. And it seems to be visual only; the system is stable.I recommend you proceed with your release. Your product is complete and working great.-Noel
bigmuscle Posted January 13, 2014 Author Posted January 13, 2014 Nothing is logged in your debug.log.That private build won't display anything in debug.log because it's disabled by default to improve performance. The final version will always log fatal errors.
WindowsOS Posted January 13, 2014 Posted January 13, 2014 (edited) If dwm.exe crashes due to unhandled exception then minidump.dmp is generated. Please upload it.If dwm.exe is terminated due to handled unexpected fatal error, then system log contains event entry with error code. Please provide it.If dwm.exe is terminated without minidump/event log and debug.log contains "Uninstalling..." line (visible only if logging is enabled), it means that dwm.exe was naturally restarted.If dwm.exe is terminated without minidump/event log and debug.log does not contains "Uninstalling..." line, it means that something in your computer terminate dwm.exe process forcibly.I do have a minidump.dmp: http://sdrv.ms/1d1wrB1 Edited January 13, 2014 by WindowsOS
oomek Posted January 14, 2014 Posted January 14, 2014 Any chance to get my hands on the version with the console disabled? AG interferes with my XBStart I'm developing constatntly stealing the focus, even when minimized. And no, I cannot uninstall AG Even for 5min. Win8 theme makes me want to scratch my eyeballs out.

NoelC Posted January 14, 2014 Posted January 14, 2014 (edited) 4 solid days of VERY hard desktop use running the Aero Glass private release preview (we're in crunch mode preparing our own software release here, unrelated to Aero Glass). It's stable.-Noel Edited January 14, 2014 by NoelC
NoelC Posted January 14, 2014 Posted January 14, 2014 ...And it still works great after today's Windows Updates.-Noel
