BetaguyGZT Posted May 5, 2004 Share Posted May 5, 2004 Looks like something that can be scripted. I wonder if it's hard-wired into the dll (which can be modified using Resource Hacker), or if it's getting it's instructions from some sort of script file like in WindowFX... Either way, I bet we could make it do a LOT more than it is currently. :D Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/164156-4074-dce-dwm-enabled-kinda/page/3/#findComment-2065237 Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why the originals were photo's. Well if this can be done I'd like to see more screens and if possible a video :D (captured directly of screen) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/164156-4074-dce-dwm-enabled-kinda/page/3/#findComment-2065257 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Illusion456 Posted May 6, 2004 Share Posted May 6, 2004 (edited) You can edit the transparent backgrounds too.. after working on it all damn day :huh: i got it all looking pretty decent.. :D By the way, the "real"Longhorn sidebar is turned off (memory leak and couldn't make it transparent), the one running in that shot is desktopsidebar using a skin I made straight from the "Aero" images found in 4074 dll's.. Everything else in the shot is a modified Jade theme running with the DCE turned on.

vortex2050 Posted May 6, 2004 Share Posted May 6, 2004 TWiST2k said: sbctl is definenlty the easier way, but I know there is ALOT more ive been finding alot of matrix calls and u know bill likes matrix so who knows we could have some cool stuff in here. Matrix meaning a rectangular array of numeric or algebraic quantities subject to mathematical operations. Not the movie. These exported functions require arguments and should/cannot be called directly as people have been trying to stupidly do. :pinch: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/164156-4074-dce-dwm-enabled-kinda/page/3/#findComment-2065861 Share on other sites More sharing options...
