Icons & text sizing issues

$
0
0
I have a multi-screen setup with a large monitor as main screen and laptop screen as secondary. I have my Fences on the laptop (secondary screen). The screen resolution on the  laptop is very high, so I scale it via Windows to 150%. The result is that the Fences icons and text do NOT scale and therefore are crammed together. There doesn't seem to be any way to spread them out so they display properly.

Compatibility issue with an app?

If you have compatibility issues with WindowBlinds and an application or game, please do let us know in this thread so we can investigate it and hopefully resolve the problem.

Please make sure you are running the latest version of WindowBlinds first and that the problem exists with a theme included with WindowBlinds vs a downloaded one. 

Please provide as much detail as you can, screenshots of the problem, information on the application itself, how to reproduce the problem and if...

I never usually have issues with Windows Blinds, that is until I installed Battlefield 1. The game will not launch because of an error and after I searched through windows 10 "event viewer" i discovered the conflict is with  "WBLIND64.dll" So the only way to run my game was to uninstall windows blinds. Is there a way to fix this so that windows blinds and Battlefield 1 can run at the same time??

Crowded Icons when waking from sleep

I've noticed that when waking the PC (Windows 10) from sleep, the fences icons get crowded together and lose their original spacing.  See below.

I've had them reset to the correct spacing occasionally, but don't know what actually caused that, aside from a reboot.

Any commands available to force a reset of icon spacing?

 

Can you still get Windowblinds Classic and other old versions of Windowblinds?

Recently I got a Windows 98SE machine up and running, and wanted to make it look as good as I could, so of course I wanted to use Windowblinds, like I have before. Unfortunately, the evaluation copies of 4.X don't support Windows 98, so I was considering buying a licence to get ahold of the enhanced edition. Do Stardock even supply older copies anymore? I searched the forums and the last reference to Windowblinds Classic was 2006. I hope they do still have them.

Prevent Windowblinds from writing to user files.

Windowblinds writes to the firefox user profile folder every time it is run. It overwrites the userChrome.css with the file ff.css from the windowblinds folder, I want to skin Firefox but i don't want some program writing to my user files without my permission.

This is even MORE important in Firefox 57 which makes it so the ONLY way to change things for a user is now userChrome.css in the profile/chrome folder. The extensions can no longer write to another extension.

My question is wtf is ...

I have been thinking about this for a few days and I ran it by starkers and he feels the same as me that it would be a great way to honor such a great friend and Skinner, OK so here's  my thought, I have been thinking of HG and I thought it would be nice to honor him with a wallpaper and make it so that its a complete set with wallpaper, window blind, and Icons, etc  and what ever all you other Skinner's out there that has the skinning bug what do you all think, is it a bad idea?

Lost a fence and contained files

This is very concerning. I was dragging a fence back to its place, when all the other fences disappeared. I could not get them to return so I rebooted. All the fences returned EXCEPT for the one I was dragging back to its spot. This one contains many important files but I do not recall all their names...just a couple. I did a search for those and they were "somewhere" on my desktop although not visible to me.  I have refreshed to no avail. Any ideas what has happened to this fence and its f...

I upgraded my Object Desktop a week ago today and ran into some problems. I opened a ticket a week ago and haven't had any response. I understand that it was Thanksgiving but there were three days before that. Someone else posted on here about their problem and someone helped them. I asked the same in the same post and got nothing. I paid for a year of Object Desktop and haven't been able to use it for a week already. If someone can't help me could you PLEASE refund my money. I've been a custome...

I use a VPN between several computers.  If a fence contains a shortcut to another network drive, folder, etc., and the device is not connected via the VPN (the VPN program has failed to load, the target computer is off, etc.), hovering over the Fence header will cause the computer to lock up and Explorer will crash.  Explorer usually comes back, but there is no way to get the fence to roll down without disabling the program.  However, if the same shortcut is on the desktop the com...

When it comes to protecting my windows computer from malicious software, as well as my own identity when shopping online, i take antivirus protection quite seriously.

I've used various antivirus products over the years including Trend Micro, AVAST, AVG, Norton etc and I found them all great in their own ways. Norton was a bit slow, but it seemed to protect my PC quite well. 

I came across this antivirus review page by Computer Fixperts comparing the top antivirus produc...

Portal view where is the global setting?

Hi,

Like Fences but found a glaring omission?  I hope I'm wrong:

I have a portal for my network drive which has a couple hundred subfolders.  I would like them all to display as a list.  It looks like the only way to do this is manually for each subfolder?

Please consider adding this important and very basic feature if it's not there.

Thank you!
