Transparent dragging doesn't work right with IE7

IE7 black window when transparent dragging enabled

Hi,

When I have transparent window dragging enabled in WindowFX, the IE7 window turns black when dragged, and stays black until it's minimized and restored, or maximized and restored, etc.

This never occurred with IE6.

Here are links to before and after screen shots-

After dragging: http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f177/dreamhive/Afterdrag.jpg

I have the latest release of IE7 and WindowFX (3.00.013).
I'm using WindowsXP SP2 with all the latest updates on a P4 with 1.5 gigs of ram and a Geforce 7800GS graphics card with the latest (93.71) drivers.

At the moment I have IE7 added to the exclusion list, but would like to be able to use transitions with it for the sake of consistency.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks

windowfx

I tried going back to the 84.21 drivers, and still the same thing.

Nobody else has noticed this?

Hi everyone. Only just got into the world of skinning and stuff. Very impressed with WindowFX and WindowBlinds so far. IE7 does seem to have a problem though. I don't have a problem with transparency, etc. but the tab strip doesn't render properly - the background colour shows the wallpaper right through and the icons appear on a black background (and so the icon text disappears). Also the outlines of the tab strips look really ragged. This is a great shame because it's the only thing that doesn't look so much better - but that one thing looks so bad I've resorted to turning tabbed browsing off. Does WindowBlinds 5 fix this at all?
