Rendering errors after Windows Update

0

Today, after restarting for a rather large set of updates, WindowFX started having some odd issues. With Wobbly Windows enabled, the titlebars of all dragged windows have become darker, and they flicker between that and the content-less window below.



 

Anyone have any idea what's going on here? Reinstalling WindowFX did not fix it. I'm using WindowFX 5.1 on Windows 7 SP1.

Riddle Me This, Windows 8

Okay, I have been using OS's long enough to be an expert. Unfortunately, the company I know and at some point I swear I trusted them, took all the stuff I knew and threw it out of windows. So, basically all that useless information I was learning while other kids were going outside and playing with each other is slightly more useless than before I got Windows 8. Now, I am trying to give the new OS and change in general a fair shot, but gosh darn if they didn't make even th...

I LOVE Fences,,But...

As the topic heading says, I love fences so much but I just cannot stand to use it any longer on Windows 8.

My PC boots up almost instantly without Fences installed, it takes just a couple of seconds to be up & running from log in.

But with Fences installed it can take up to 50 seconds from log in to actually be able to do anything from the desktop, which is way too long.

It has a few other minor glitches too so even though I love it once it's up & running I'm afraid it ...

Medium bug in Fences 2.0

0
0
I don't think Fences 1.x had this one.

The problem is this:
1) Close the Windows 7 shell - click Start, press and hold Ctrl+Shift, then right-click any empty area on the Start menu and choose "Exit Explorer".
2) Now run the shell again - Task Manager (which you can run via Ctrl+Shift-Escape), Run, explorer.exe.
RESULT: Fences won't run again. And it does not appear in the desktop right-click menu. Trying to start it via the Control Panel fails.
EXPECTED: Fences should auto-start a...

Just wanted to pass on my wishes for a Happy Thanksgiving to all those in the community celebrating it. 

If you are traveling have a safe trip and be sure to return on Monday.  Someone, no doubt, will be writing done name of those not here.  (Not me.) 

If you have to watch sports, hope your team wins. 

Oh and remember you don't have to sit at the table and eat until all the food is gone, you can have a turkey sandwich on Friday and finish up what is left o...

Apart from bloody Balmer the economist running a tech company...

 

I want to make one thing clear.. Windows 7 is the best operating system to have ever been released by Microsoft..

Windows 8 is the worst piece of shit in the whole history of microsoft and i can probably guess theres some kind of espionage thing going on where they convert all user hate mail about the new ui to positive reviews.

 

Anyway --i think this is the best for everyone because now we can all buy m...

Fences 2.0

I just installed Fences 2.0 'over' Fences Pro without removing Fences Pro. After a reboot every thing seems to work fine. But I just found when you create a folder portal, icons are appearing without any text. So you do not have a clue what's in it. Also text is missing when you select details from the view menu. I use a black background and probably the text is also in black. The text only appears if one clicks just near a icon for a rename. On the other hand the normal fences are o...

Everyone may post here, as well as in the good'ol Flameroom...I mean, Chatroom

So for this reason, I may update the OP of this thread in the future, posting certain thread rules, as I see fit.

For now though, post away, and everyo...

A real quicky for you all….

MS has some wonderful themepacks for the holidays. The wallpapers are stunning examples of what folks who have photographic talent can do.

If you don’t want the theme, and only want the walls (in 1920 x 1200 res) you can use the free 7-zip utility (download here: http://free7zip.com/) to unzip the theme to the wallpapers and theme separately and save the walls to a different location as I explained in this article:

Transparent Sections not working?

Hello,

I am attempting to skin windows blinds (using skin studio).  When trying to use transparent areas in certain explorer parts, they show up black once skin is applied (see attachment) even though they render properly in skin studio's preview.  Any help?  I have tried both PNG with direct alpha, and BMP with magic pink alpha to no avail.

 

The transparent sections are rendered white if I use "Personalize>Non-aero" in windows settings, and rendered black if...

Transparent Sections not working?

little help or explanation needed.

 

When attempting to skin certain sections of explorer/7 parts. Such as favorite links BG, (or any part of it really), my transparent sections are not showing up properly when applying skin.  Skin Studio shows them properly though.  My favorite links bg is also not being rendered at all.  see attached image.
