truexfan81 Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 (edited) few problems with the 1.01. there are no files where i told the installer to install it to.2. i have put my donation.key in the location i told it to install to, and i still get the donation nag3. it is not using my settings and themeatlas...this was all working in the rc34. i looked in task scheduler it is pointing to the location i told the installer to install to, not sure how it is running tho as again there are no files except the donation.key in that locationedit:ok i fixed it by doing the following1. download the 7z instead of the installer2. delete the entry in task scheduler3. kill all instances of aerohost.exe4. copy the install.bat from the rc3 dir to the one i created for the 1.0, and run it1.0 now works as expected, symbols are downloaded and themeatlas and settings are usedbigmuscle there is nothing wrong with the 1.0 that i can see, the installer just needs a bit of work Edited January 20, 2014 by truexfan81
xzes Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 (edited) It is as I said:You simply must use some tool which enables blur behind taskbar and disables accent on taskbar. Aero Glass is just native rendering engine and it's not there to explicitly change any window style.How? After apply OpaqueTaskbar and reboot system, taskbar back to default Win8.1 transparency (3rd image in 59th post) Edited January 20, 2014 by xzes

bigmuscle Posted January 20, 2014 Author Posted January 20, 2014 few problems with the 1.01. there are no files where i told the installer to install it to.2. i have put my donation.key in the location i told it to install to, and i still get the donation nag3. it is not using my settings and themeatlas...this was all working in the rc34. i looked in task scheduler it is pointing to the location i told the installer to install to, not sure how it is running tho as again there are no files except the donation.key in that locationThis seems to be just one problem - it installed to different location. Please uninstall a run setup again with command line parameter /LOG="log.txt", so:setup.exe /LOG="log.txt"and be sure you have write access to the folder where setup.exe is located. After install (if it still does not work) provide generated log.txt.
bigmuscle Posted January 20, 2014 Author Posted January 20, 2014 Tusticles: confirmed, I will fix it in next version.

bigmuscle Posted January 20, 2014 Author Posted January 20, 2014 BlurDeviation is not from 0 to 100 and there is no reason to set this settings in registry if he does not want to change amount of the blur. And setting it to 30 has absolutely no sense.

And setting it to 30 has absolutely no sense.0 TO 100 works for me 0 Gives me full clear Transparency. 100 Gives Total Blur. http://glass8.berlios.de/guide.htmlBlurDeviation DWORD Standard deviation for Gaussian blur, default = 30 (which means σ = 3.0) <- Confusing Value 0 results in non-blurred transparency.

bigmuscle Posted January 20, 2014 Author Posted January 20, 2014 Of course, both values will work but it's not limited to this range only.

chmichael Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 chmichael: do not install custom glass theme during Aero Glass installation. Or delete HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\DWM:CustomThemeAtlas registry value. Can't you support Atlas on custom themes ? I need to enable Glow effect on this theme! Thank you
battllegrounds Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 That's why the EULA for the installer says its for Advanced users only. Aint nobody got time to explain how everything works with this when there's two threads that already explain everything if you read.ok thanks for the attention, the time you lost writing that could have put the topic that explains not think, but that's okay since I discovered alone as works on another forum, where staff have more time ... vlw
andreypiekas Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 Here worked perfectly, but I had to inject the registry. What is the minimum donation required to receive the license?
