Lum Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 (edited) How did you get it working on 16299.15? I have the donate version of 1.5.6 so it should grab symbols automatically, but all I get is a message saying that it doesn't work in my version of windows. (edit: working. It gave me an invalid machine ID, got the correct ones from the debug.log and now I have the symbols) (edit2: not working after reboot, even with symbols present) Edited October 8, 2017 by Lum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreamweaver01 Posted October 8, 2017 Author Share Posted October 8, 2017 I still get the warning but you must hit cancel and not try again. Then just play with the GUI until you get the effect you like. -DW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lum Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 Yeah that fixed it (apart from the blur effect). Now if I can just get autohotkey to interact with that popup window, it'll be sorted, but even running as admin doesn't work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreamweaver01 Posted October 8, 2017 Author Share Posted October 8, 2017 (edited) Why do you want autohotkey? You would have to make it hit cancel. Is it so hard to just click it? Edited October 9, 2017 by Dreamweaver01 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I currently have an autohotkey startup script that launches my apps across 2 virtual desktops and pixel-perfect positions their windows, but the Glass8 windows have thicker borders and the prompt ends up behind them. Also I'm lazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreamweaver01 Posted October 9, 2017 Author Share Posted October 9, 2017 (edited) You can adjust the thickness of the border by adjusting WindowMetrics in the registry which you may have done already. I get the lazy part as I'm that too. -DW Edited October 9, 2017 by Dreamweaver01 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lum Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 Yeah, but even with border padding set to 0 (as I have done) it's still there because the border padding on the default Win10 theme is invisible (which is why windows positioning is always screwed on Win10) But yeah, it's mainly about just automating setting up my environment, so I log in to something already set up, not having to dismiss error messages like it's my dad's old Windows 98 box.

Dreamweaver01 Posted October 9, 2017 Author Share Posted October 9, 2017 Ah, Windows 98 which I was a beta tester. -DW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lum Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 (edited) Solved the problem. Added this to my existing AutoHotKey startup script: Run, schtasks.exe /run /tn "DWMGlassElevate.exe_-1916372974" which just runs another compiled AutoHotKey script, now as admin, that simply elevates itself further (to TrustedInstaller status) using PowerRun Run, C:\Scripts\PowerRun_x64.exe C:\Scripts\DWMGlass.exe which finally kills the dialogue box! WinWait, dwm.exe,,15 WinClose, dwm.exe I'm sure there's neater ways to do it, like a single script that check's its own privilege level, but I don't care. This works . Because it's run first, it means I don't have to hover over each window to correct the initial drawing errors.

Klamatiel Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 So, AG works on 16299.15 without blur? Clean install or upgrade? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreamweaver01 Posted October 11, 2017 Author Share Posted October 11, 2017 both ways -DW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drake_22 Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 @bigmuscle is there any way to apply gaussian blur to make the effect deeper? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
