DoubleSAnimations Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 (edited) Some windows like the mobility center were a bit screwed up Ah. Yeah I know why that happens. It's because the "Windows & Caption Buttons > Aero > DWM Window > Frames > Window > Top / Left / Right" images were modified to have the overlay effects that Windows 7 once carried, but was removed as of Windows 8 Consumer Preview. Since the Properties no longer were listed in 8/8.1's msstyles. The overlay effects were included in the actual Window frames. Windows just as "Mobility Center", and the "Gadgets" window (If people took the time to registry tweak their Windows 8.1 to had WIndows 7's gadgets.) Are programmed with only, "DWM Window > Frames > Window > Top and Bottom." That's what causes the mess-up.

My1 Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 (edited) Then just try it.And I dont say you should return to 8.0 but just change the theme to the default one. Edited November 5, 2014 by My1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drakenabarion Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 Been running on windows 10 tp for some time now and I have had no issues. Well only one theme related issue. That is the order edges of window borders are black instead of the white that I got used to in the windows 8.1. Not a big deal really. I just probably have to edit the atlas manually Sent from my Nexus 4 running CM11 (KK 4.4.4) using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other theme doesn't have this as well. DoubleSanimations just explained why my theme does that and not on the other. Mine uses custom borders to add back in the glow and shine effects. The one you listed does not have that which is why that has no issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xXiNightXx Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 bigmuscle any chance to add back glow on caption buttons through Aero Glass? The method I use to use in windows 8 broke in 8.1/10 (Glyph method) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
