Binary Posted January 9, 2003 Author Share Posted January 9, 2003 Don't have any issues with screen res here. some people may experience difficulties with this version because of numerous 'workarounds' I have done, higher screen resolutions may cause bugs, I'll have to wait and see what people say after I release it.

Tran Posted January 9, 2003 Share Posted January 9, 2003 Ah I see you where you are going with this. Problems because their res might be too big or too small etc. If that's not what you mean than... but I understand. My screen res is 1024x768 so I hope that is good enough.

RaQ Posted January 9, 2003 Share Posted January 9, 2003 It's finished, I'll just have to wait till Alex puts his server up again, and I will also call my ISP tomorrow. Plus I need a break! ;) Only few more hours, then everything will be fine and stability beyond dreams from then on out.

andy_rose Posted January 9, 2003 Share Posted January 9, 2003 Thank god! I just downloaded it from the main server just a few minutes ago! Oh yes, another suggestion. I don't know if I already mentioned this but I wonder if it would alright if you can add a bit of color to the taskbar to match the color of the visual style? yeah i agree. would be cool with a blue taskbar for the blue scheme etc. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/32604-watercolor-v43/page/25/#findComment-592738 Share on other sites More sharing options...

dysektor Posted January 9, 2003 Share Posted January 9, 2003 I believe you'll need the uxtheme.dll patch. There are links for the patch in the Customizing Windows XP forum right at the top.

tmaxxtigger Posted January 9, 2003 Share Posted January 9, 2003 Does anyone else have problems resizing midi windows in Photoshop and other applications with this Visual Style? If I change the style while the app is open, it works fine, but if I open the app after the style has been changed, all I can resize is the height.....

This has ben mentioned many times throughout the thread. You can resize by using the left hand side of the window,or the very upper right corner of the window (once the window is more than 125 pixels large you can resize anywhere ). I might be fixing this issue, but the fix might make the theme look wierd.
