Title Bar

Hi Everyone,

I have downloaded some windowblinds but when I use them the title bar on my programs when I save the file the file changes colour it will not change back to the original colour until I minimize then restore the file it doesn't do this with the original Vista screen.

I am using Vista Home Premium SP2

any ideas?

Regards,

Mark

Is this Windowblinds 7 Beta? I beleive it to be a bug not confirmed as of yet.

Not quite sure what you're describing here. Can you elaborate a bit? Or perhaps post screenshots?

Hi,

I have MSOffice 2007 the title bar on word and excel when I come to save anything it changes from black to white and all the writing goes to the left of the screen covering the buttons I can run my mouse over the bar and it removes most of of the white but still leaves some the only way I can remove the white and return the titlebar back to normal is to minimize the program and restore it them comes back to normal until the next time.

This is what the windowblinds system shows: -

Did you install any other GUI altering software at anytime?

Your screenshot looks/ makes no sense. You shouldn't be seeing the Vista buttons with that taskbar. If WB crashes you would see Classic images.

Does it do it with all skins?

Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling Windowblinds?

To try and resolve this issue, try verifying WindowBlinds through Impulse. If you need to, you may download Impulse here: http://www.impulsedriven.com/impulse_setup_full.exe . Once Impulse is installed it will give you the option to create a Stardock.net account if you haven't already. If you already have an account, but forgot the password, Impulse also will give you the option to retrieve your account information.

To verify the application through Impulse:

-Launch Impulse. Right click on the entry for the application and choose "Verify application"
-Impulse will check the integrity of the installed application. You should be given feedback as to the state of the installed application.
-If errors are found, an update should be made available in Impulse. This is not an update to a newer version, but simply Impulse using the update mechanism to replace corrupted files.
-Once the update completes, reboot your PC.

The first is the items I have installed via Impulse the second is the screen showing the titlebar white instead of black when I save a file.

I have tried verifiying windowblinds and it installed the updates then rebooted but no change tried uninstalling windowblinds and re-installing it but no change still does the same it does the same for all the windowblinds the titlebar changes to white but only in Office 2007 no other program.
