Themes that leave gaps in the taskbar problem

Please help, if I use a theme such as Vienna or Arzo where the taskbar doesnt cover the whole length of the screen like this https://www.wincustomize.com/zoom.aspx?skinid=6127&libid=1

Everything works fine until I reboot, then I lose transparency around the start menu button and at the other side of the taskbar.

Running xpsp2 latest version of WB.

Thanks

Far as I know its a result of doing things with WB that it doesn't like very much. Usually, If you unlock your taskbar.. stretch it to double size and then back to normal ..should fix it easily.

I agree, resizing the taskbar fixes the transparency issue and also fixes oversized startbuttons that fail to appear properly in some themes

CBA doing that every time tbh

this isnt a problem with themes. its doing it for anything that leaves a gap/has transparency, its a bit poor if the program cant even support simple taskbar transparency :/

It does support transparency. Take the advice given.. it works. Everytime. Look at the screenshots of the themes you have mentioned..obviously the taskbars are fully transparent.

You may of course have described your problem incorrectly but this works for everyone else.

Hey ripkord; open WB config, select View my system information, copy and paste it here.

I have never seen this issue happen, for one of the skins you mentioned, Vienna, I was one of the testers for vStyler, I never had any taskbar issues with it.
