NoelC Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 I haven't been able to get my Win 10 virtual machine to enter multi-monitor mode for some reason. -Noel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigmuscle Posted March 27, 2015 Author Share Posted March 27, 2015 There is absolutely no magic in blurring the taskbar on the second monitor. It works exactly in the same way as blurring any other window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My1 Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 get some tool to find the Window Classes (I think one was called Window Spy or whatever) let it get the class of the 2nd taskbar and insert it as another line into the script we already have... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhjohns Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Well I got the tool, but I just cant seem to make it do what it is supposed to do. It seems to work, but I can not even get it to pick up the class name for the FIRST taskbar. If I could see it do that right, I would know it is doing something. If someone could give me the class name for the taskbar on the second monitor, I could get the transparency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrGRiM Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Aero Glass still working on build 10049 but not straight away, it tries to find symbols first and then finds some sort of fallback to use, there is some noticeable artifacts in the windows though, setting the blur radius effect to 0 stops it though.

NoelC Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 (edited) Same behavior as with build 10041 at first. Let's hope this time when the symbols download it just starts working, vs. crashing as it did with 10041. FYI, though I haven't had time to do a detailed check, the theme atlas resources seem to be in the same places as with build 10041. -Noel Edited March 31, 2015 by NoelC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikedigitize Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Seems to behave like 10041, as Noel said, But with the difference that Mordern Frame symbols is not yet in place (Failed to load symbol module ApplicationFrame.dll: 0)..early days yet/Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhjohns Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Yea, the only thing I couldn't get to work at all was ModernFrame.dll. The other Aeroglass effects work including taskbar transparency. I found it works better when my donation.key is not installed. Otherwise I have to wait, and wait, and wait to hit cancel! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
