No, Jim. It's not some fancy French sauce.

A´jour -"Up to date" or atleast something similar -French

 

A couple of months ago Xiandi wrote something totally uncomprehensible on the subject, you were supposed to be able to get rid of that bloody darn piece of text through Skinstudio somehow, but it was so extremely complicated I never even tried it......and I´m GOOD at Sks !

Speaking of Xiandi, this is one of her skins that doesn't have the shut down text. Running on Windows 8.

-Good for her, -I really  mean it.

Unfortunately it´s too messy to be called a proper skinning solution for everybody.

This should be in the settings for start 8 or similar. -"Take away text on shutdown/Log off buttons"

I was only saying there is a solution, now Stardock could take whatever Xiandi did, and make it simpler, and integrate it into SKS.

The problem is the use of those content margins to shift the text is out of spec and WB isn't exposing the information needed to Start8.

Hopefully the next WB update (not Start8) will add in exposing that information to Start8.  On Windows 7 it isn't needed as WB handles all the text itself.

She is probably using the Vista theme parts which do not have text painted on them.

Off topic, also notice that on the upper right of the start menu in reply 32 the animations are missing. This should be looked at as well.

Well, of this I don´t understand anything...How can you use "Vista parts" on a Win 8 skin ??  Ah well,

When can we expect to see an apropriate Windowblinds update then ?

Im with Andy on this one since SKS is complicated especially for starters i know how lost i was when i made my first skin... and because your options to change stuff like this in WB itself is close to 0
It would be great if you guys could manage to close those little things on the next windowblinds update, start8 and Iconpackager 
I know Neil already read the topic and i myself reportet flaws via IRC and was told that there is internal work beeing done , i think you are already at it since the release of windows8.1 is only two days away would be perfect for you guys to test it do some changes and throw a bunch of updates out ^^
OT:
including the IP Live folders 
Ohh that would be soooooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO great
