judge Posted December 8, 2003 Share Posted December 8, 2003 Well, as Wincustomize seems not to want to reset the update date (if you follow me), I'll advertise it here. Just updated OSXP NG with toolbars and animations (c.f WB 4.2). Get it here. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/121877-vs-osxp-ng/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

judge Posted December 14, 2003 Author Share Posted December 14, 2003 The font you are using looks much bigger than on my machine. Not sure why. Do you have the same problem with other WB skins?

Rechain Posted December 14, 2003 Share Posted December 14, 2003 I don't have that problem with this Skin... But with the LaST (Cobalt) by Paul Boyer, I have the same problem...

RASelkirk Posted December 14, 2003 Share Posted December 14, 2003 I seem to recall having problems with *some* skins, certainly not all. I have tried all settings under the 'appearance' tab, but the tab's font never changes, so I'm guessing it's hard-coded in the style. :( Russ Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/121877-vs-osxp-ng/#findComment-1472108 Share on other sites More sharing options...
judge Posted December 15, 2003 Author Share Posted December 15, 2003 Well. The fonts it uses are certainly hard-coded but not at that size. Have you looked at Display properties/appearance/window blinds/user overrides (keep clicking those buttons :-) ). There are settings for font overrides there. Make sure they aren't set to something. On the other hand, if they aren't set, set them to a font that works for you.

metro Posted December 15, 2003 Share Posted December 15, 2003 I have noticed that when I use WB skins that some menu's and other form objects in some programs like tabs do not have text anymore, but if they have a clickable function then it will still work as long as you guess where the right one is that you want to click. I am not sure why it does this, and the new features of WB2 are nice but this bug is enough to make me not want to use it. If I turn off the skin feature for certain programs, then there would be no point to even use WB because this happens on most of the applications that I use.

On the other hand, if they aren't set, set them to a font that works for you. Judge, I looked at those settings, they were already as you suggested. Tried changing the fonts to several different ones, but same results. The only one that's bothersome is the vertical text on the Corel 'tabs'. It wouldn't be so bad, but the tab you want is not necessarily the one you have to click to get it! I'm gonna use it anyway, I love the aluminum look!

While You Were Art Posted December 31, 2003 Share Posted December 31, 2003 Yum. :woot: But I would like to attempt a somewhat more articulate response than just that ! What I long to see is all the Jaguar-style themers pool resources and come up with the ultimate closest match to the original. Jaguar is such a design classic that the neglect in favour of the new-is-best ethos, just makes me sad. Panther Samantha! :rolleyes: Not to knock Panther, it has its place, but the predominance of solid grays... belongs to cloudy winter days and not on my desktop! Personally I am torn between this theme and the one that Duckie worked on (which has really cool throbbing buttons, much like the real os x has). Very nice work, my man. How about the option of switchable variations between pureist and non?
