CKyHC Posted January 26, 2014 Posted January 26, 2014 CKyHC, you won't get the much in the way of rounded corners with just a theme atlas, but the theme atlas I dolled-up doesn't look too bad in daily use. My buttons look flatter and some don't like the dark minimize and restore buttons, but I think they step out of the way nicely and give the taskbar a nice clean look when used with a dark background. http://Noel.ProDigitalSoftware.com/ForumPosts/themeatlas.pngI also use some registry tweaks to make the chrome around Windows smaller overall. Note the SetWindowMetrics.reg file in this .zip file, which I normally supply with my Windows 8 book:http://www.ProDigitalSoftware.com/files/W8ToWork/CompanionTools.zip-NoelI use square variant of theme, but i make my own style using xXiNightXx theme and add glowing caption battons from theme MrGRiM01
srka Posted January 26, 2014 Posted January 26, 2014 (edited) I can't load custom atlas. I have symbols.[2014-01-26 19:56:27][0x1B84:0xCBC] Atlas resource loading (custom: "C:\Users\srki7_000\Desktop\win8rp.png")[2014-01-26 19:56:27][0x1B84:0xCBC] Failed to load custom atlas file (0x7B) EDIT: I looked up for error code and found it here. It means that name syntax is incorrect. Probably because there's _ in my username. I copied file to different folder and it works now. Edited January 26, 2014 by srka
bigmuscle Posted January 26, 2014 Author Posted January 26, 2014 Guide states: path to PNG file with theme resource (bitmap must have exactly the same layout as msstyle theme you are using!) Does it state somewhere that it should be put into quotes?
NoelC Posted January 26, 2014 Posted January 26, 2014 (edited) Amen, Brother (was commenting on a post early in the thread about how we give thanks for a beautiful desktop - the Quote balloon on this site is still not right with IE11).-Noel Edited January 26, 2014 by NoelC
josegalre Posted January 26, 2014 Posted January 26, 2014 @bigmuscle hello, excellent app! thank you very much, one question, how would you pay for a license of 5 pcs?
raiden89 Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 You only donate once then you go to the donate page on his site, put in the email used, the machine code for the one you're trying to setup and then the zip. Then download the donation key. You dont pay for each PC. I donated once and use it on 2 PCs.

I just found a bug that custom reflection won't load under some conditions and it will always use the default imageWhat conditions are you talking about? Its not loading for me either, and I don't get any errors in debug.log

ptd163 Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 (edited) Ptd163, what is your Windows version? Ideally (BigMuscle has asked above) what is the specific version info for dwmcore.dll and udwm.dll in your System32 directory? You can get that info by right-clicking on them (individually) and choosing Properties, then clicking the Details tab.Good things are coming, folks. Give BigMuscle a little time to organize everything and get another release out.-NoelIt was a empty, fresh Windows 8.1 Pro VM so I'm guessing it's whatever the factory default version is. I'll check the properties though next I power it on.Edit: It worked fine no problem on a physical drive that had 8.1 installed. I see it has a watermark in the lower right of the screen. Does that get removed with the paid version? Edited January 27, 2014 by ptd163
NoelC Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 I can't get disable logging working.A (very) few things are always logged.But if you're still seeing all the details, have you tried restarting your system after making the change to the registry?-Noel
bigmuscle Posted January 27, 2014 Author Posted January 27, 2014 It was a empty, fresh Windows 8.1 Pro VM so I'm guessing it's whatever the factory default version is.That might be problem, because I created DWM patterns for DLLs version that was current at the time of the release. I see it has a watermark in the lower right of the screen. Does that get removed with the paid version?Yes, it does.
