DosProbie Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 @Moataz Everyone should Know that the Atlas is Only for the Default Themes but for the 1 percent I would Change. From > Enhanced frame (Atlas)To something like > Enhanced frame (Atlas) DO NOT Use For Custom Themes! ~DP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moataz Posted August 3, 2014 Author Share Posted August 3, 2014 Custom themes doesn't necessary mean it'll play bad with Atlas, I have a theme that build upon Windows 8 aero "C:\Windows\Resources\Themes\aero\aero.msstyles" that i only changed (5 or 6) pics in it using Rescource Hacker, but the theme is still (compatible) with the Atlas.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigmuscle Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 When atlas file has compatible layout, it makes no difference whether you have default or custom theme. The only bad thing is that there is no reliable way to say whether the atlas is compatible with current theme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DosProbie Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 Yep bigmuscle is correct "Compatible" is the key, but I have Never found a Custom theme button stream compatible with a atlas file but good luck. ~DP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moataz Posted August 4, 2014 Author Share Posted August 4, 2014 This is the theme (for 8.1) I was talking about, I just changed some pics that I can't taste (button, checkbox, radio button, drop-down list, scrollbar and hovering on items)I always replace "C:\Windows\Resources\Themes\aero\aero.msstyles" with it.(you may need to take-ownership of aero.msstyles first and delete vscache folder) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moataz Posted August 4, 2014 Author Share Posted August 4, 2014 (edited) No problem, do you have a C# and WPF experience ? Edited August 4, 2014 by moataz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winstonsmith Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 the 1.3 release doesn't work for me. I get a dialog box with the title "Not supported environment" and the contents "Please make sure you have "Aero Glass for Win8.x" installed". I have a registered copy and v1.2.5 is installed. I'm running Win 8.1 Pro 64 bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moataz Posted August 29, 2014 Author Share Posted August 29, 2014 You should be installing Aero Glass to the default folder: C:\AeroGlass, Is that is that ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moataz Posted December 27, 2014 Author Share Posted December 27, 2014 (edited) Just to refresh the topic.And also to mention that this tool, is still working better than Big Muscle's GUI in some parts. (In my experience) So people just have the choice. Edited December 27, 2014 by moataz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigmuscle Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 Please, describe what's working better so I can fix the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bukket Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 um the link is down? "The file has been reported as potentially breaching our terms of use and is awaiting review." "The time period for reviewing the file has been exceeded and the file is no longer available" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoelC Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 (edited) The 3rd party customizers, while their very existence may imply Big Muscle could have some more work to do to polish HIS version, have traditionally just messed things up more than they've helped. Some of them sought to crack the software as well. I don't know where this particular one here fell in that spectrum, but such software has generally not been welcome here. -Noel Edited January 22, 2016 by NoelC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
