Reply to Static or Animated Desktop in WinCustomize News WinCustomize Forums

I have dreams running almost all the time, but I do frequently pause them. It all depends - If I have the desktop pretty much covered to the point where the dream effect is a waste, I'll pause it. If I'm really trying to focus on something and the dream is distracting me, I'll pause it. Right now I have the window taking up about 2/3rds of the screen and I'm not having to think too hard, and the dream is running and it's a pleasant addition. I'd guess overall in terms

[quote]let us know your favorites or any styles we should add to the app. [/quote] I've always thought an animated "wispy smoke" could be nice. A "shift" function could be useful, to shift the entire wallpaper or dream to get the center to either edge, with a left/right slider control. I'd guess it would create a mirrored effect on the vacated area.

November Win10 Update, KB5072653 in Windows Discussion WinCustomize Forums

I had a Win10 update today, which made me scratch my head a bit. I thought those were done. Since I went to the trouble of tracking it down I thought I'd pass it along to my fellow Win10'ers. Apparently it's related to their ESU program functionality, I haven't tracked down exactly how or what though. Anyway, it's valid. https://www

If you like you can peruse the forums for what's been said: https://forums.wincustomize.com/search;0Patch Other than that all I can really say is I've had the pro version installed on W10 for about a month and had no problems. I will warn you that they bill in Euros, if your account isn't a Euro account it'll get converted and a conversion fee will be added or charged separately.

[quote who="DaveRI" reply="6" id="3978425"] The image you posted in the OP is not particularly well-suited to be tiled, note the tiling seam in the titlebar of my image. You'll probably want to edit the image so that the right edge flows better into the left edge.

[quote who="arandomstranger741" reply="5" id="3978399"] ok, i fixed it. I know I am being nitpicky (and annoying probably) but... It is lighter that the original with the default blend option, it squishes the image a little bit and because of that, the reflection looks thinner that the original. I also think the image is also tilted a little bit(???) [/quote] All of that distortion is the result of vertically squishing and/or horizontally stretching the image. You

There is no option to simply flip the buttons from the right side to the left. You would need to edit the skin in SkinStudio and change the positioning for each of the buttons.

You're welcome. I can see where Curtains might be better suited for what it sounds like you're trying to accomplish. You probably already know this, but I should mention it: Microsoft's support for Win10 ends in October of this year. I did see a while ago that Microsoft was intending to offer extended service contracts for Win10, I have not paid any further attention to that. There is another company which supplies extended support for expired Windows versions,

The text color setting for "Dark" in this section appears to be ignored. It does not appear to be specific to this skin. In Dark mode Explorer shows the text black, the couple of applications I checked continue to use the "Light" color. If you set WBConfig (or Window Personalize / Colors / Custom / App Mode) to "Light" the chosen color applies as it should. I also noticed that if you look at the screenshot for the "SteamPowered" skin, both the Grouping Headers and the statusbar text i
