WindowsBlinds 5 and FireFox 1.5.0.1

February 2, 2006 11:12:36 PM from WinCustomize ForumsWinCustomize Forums
I'm having a problem with FireFox losing it's title bar and title-bar icons somehow. I have the latest version of WindowsBlinds 5.00[b].011 and the latest FireFox 1.5.0.1 (non-beta). The problem is happening somehow during the evening of opening stuff and such and so far I haven't been able to figure out if there might be a conflict with some other software or not. I was wondering if anyone else had seen this type of problem before?

Running FF1.5.0.1 with WB5.00[b].011 here on a laptop with ATI IGP 340 graphics & no problems. I'm using a FF theme but the titlebar skins fine.

Cheers,
Daiwa

Yea, I have noticed as well that Firefox sometimes looses it's borders. I have not been able to deliberately reproduce it.

I haven't had any problems running them. The only difference I have noticed is that the FF window goes black for a second or two when loading a new page.

I get the same with any skin...but the extension thing is probably the culprit. I have a few on here.

i have no probelms running all these, so if you have others, try disabling one by one them to find the culprit

good luck

Problem is. I can't reproduce it. Occurs randomly.

Same issue here. But if you double click on the title bar it will be skinned again. I'm not sure what the problem is. I disabled all extension and tried other themes, but that didn't solve it.

i'm using WB5 with danilloOc's Anion skin without any problems, which is a skin for version 4.6 and up of WB, but it is not an exclusive WB 5 skin, and has no built in transparency...it may be that this is a problem with WB5 skins...have you tried using an older WB skin?...i know this doesn't help, but it may help narrow the problem down

I have this problem on one machine (with an older video card) but not on the other. I have had a response from Stardock tech support that they are working on it. It seems to only happen for me (on the older video) with skins that use per pixel alpha.

I also have the same problem. however, it doesn't happen every time. Not only that, but it slows down the RoboForm extension consideribly when listing all the logins. . .

the only time i have seen the actual disappearance of title bar is when i accidently hit F11 (there's also a shfit or ctrl combo for that, which i run into by accident also - never figured out what it was i keep accidently doing).
