Crackler Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 It seems as though it might not have been intentionally covered. Some of the screenshots which don't contain a build number have the watermark in the lower right. Seems to be the default location for the watermark on their images. :ermm: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/761304-windows-7-build-7082/page/2/#findComment-590877112 Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Freeman Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 As stupid as it is pcbeta always sticks their logos in lower right corner, so it doesnt automatically mean it fake, if thats what you were wondering. But anyway - no big point of this considering its Chinese... again. I dont see myself messing with homemade packs unless thers some huge changes (althou seeing old superbar buttons back is nice its not enough). Also the fact that rc is really close.

Axel Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 I really do hope they do something about the taskbar prior to final realease - it's not ergonomic at all.

But that's not the point. Why cover it in the fist place? Completely stupid. You'll notice that clearly was wrapped in " marks. It was covered because that's where the watermark always gets put.

After using the taskbar in 7, it's VERY hard to use anything else. I've found that I get work done quicker and find the window I'm looking for with no problem. Can't say the same about the old taskbar, which I've had a recent experience where the new taskbar sure as hell would have been a great help. I love the fact that it looks clean even if I do have crap loads of windows open.

lee31 Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Anyone who thinks the taskbar icon glow has been changed since 7077 are wrong and need to look closer at the screenshots. You can clearly tell by the border effects on the opened windows shown that the user simply clicked on an empty space on the desktop before taking the screenshot. Doing this changes the border effect of the opened windows and the taskbar icon to a clearer effect until you either click on the taskbar icon or the opened window which will return it back to it's normal state. Next time you have a window open in 7077 click on an empty space on the desktop and see what happens to the taskbar icon.

If the user would have clicked the desktop the window wouldn't be focused as they are and all the buttons would look exactly the same. Foggier windows, red close caption, etc give it away that it's fully in the foreground AND focused. You're wrong.

Sean2989 Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Still cool either way, but its nothing to jump and down about. I just wonder how this compares to the RC and if we might see the *new UI* in the RC or not. I mean I know its only said to be in RTM builds, but hope springs eternal. My only question is how the hell are the Chinese getting ahold of these leaks left and right?

Ok I didn't see that the WMC window was fully focused but on a lightish wallpaper like that it's hard to tell if it's different or not. I highly doubt it's been changed since 7077 as 7077 onwards in the winmmain_win7rc branch is code frozen meaning only bug fixes are being worked on not UI or feature changes. Time will tell though.

That "new UI" is just a rumour and I expect it to stay that way. Remember the RC was suppose to be relased on the 10th of April but looked what happened there. Don't listen to rumour.

Don't listen to rumour. Oh I know it's a rumor, and whether it gets a new UI, well I could care less. I'm just happy with the performance thus far, and the Aero still looks good to me. With the other tweaks to make explorer more color neutral, I honestly think that's enough.
