Please let us know
Published on November 24, 2016 By Neil Banfield In WindowBlinds

If you have compatibility issues with WindowBlinds and an application or game, please do let us know in this thread so we can investigate it and hopefully resolve the problem.

Please make sure you are running the latest version of WindowBlinds first and that the problem exists with a theme included with WindowBlinds vs a downloaded one. 

Please provide as much detail as you can, screenshots of the problem, information on the application itself, how to reproduce the problem and if possible dmp files from any crashes. 

The information on the about WindowBlinds page and information on your setup would be helpful too.

Is the issue happen only on Corporate or any other theme/Style?

You can check this easily yourself. I just tried "Circles" and they are rendering active apps diiferently on the status bar - they stand out.

 

With corporate using the vertical bars in not right. It should be horizontal, like basic windows or like circles theme (which does top/bottom).

I don't have a theme name "circles", could you please post a link so I can verify.

Found it. I get your point, but still that is on how the designer designed the skin to be. So its really up to danioc. Anyway, I have forwarded your questions/problems to the Stardock Support team for their assistance. Please keep an eye on this thread for any updates. We appreciate your feedback and patience.

Please add an option to remove skining on a full folder. In this case C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\

All apps from MS Store use custom skining that will not work with skin (whatsapp, screenshot, etc)

Also, the folder is by default protected, so you cant easily add exclude files.

Also, This apps tend to change name on every release (example = 

C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\Microsoft.ScreenSketch_10.1907.2471.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe

Info:

WindowBlinds 10.84 (059 - Windows 10 Edition) - 64 bit OS

Microsoft Windows [Versión 10.0.18363.778]

Thanks

Generally Windowblinds will ignore those apps from there which it cannot skin.  Not all apps on the store use custom looks and even those that do often can be skinned on the title bar.

What store app is causing a problem and what is the issue?

...I have this software app called Revo Uninstaller Pro version 4.3.1 when I open it up it vibrates when it opened and starts blinking...
I can't recreate this in the free version but it is one of those (very few) apps for which some of the text cannot be seen because it is rendered the same colour as the background. Other victims that suffer with this problem include (list will be updated when I remember more):

  1. Backup and sync from Google (alert pop-ups and options).

I know there is an option in WB's settings to "Apply accent colour to backgrounds" but I've always noticed this checkbox has been a bug since as long as I can remember, and we're talking years now. No matter if it's checked or not it always turns off but still seems to apply the colour anyway. That said, I have noticed that it does render BiglyBT differently depending on if that box is ticked or not. No other apps that also render differently spring to mind. WB is such an all-embracing app it must be very hard to ensure everything is supported.

For example, the attached image, shows the default windows 10 Clipping and annotation(don't know exact english name), which draws windows blinds border, and over it will draw its ugly plain border. You can see about 4px on the left of the image.

Why does the Corporate skin ALWAYS maximize the app over the task bar? Can I stop this? Most annoying. And why does it not show the caption in the title bar?

Another app with problems, is the very common "discord"

It installs in a variable directory:

"C:\Users\%user%\AppData\Local\Discord\app-0.0.306\Discord.exe"

 

So manually excluding it is useless, as path will change on the next release.

Stardock: people are demanding for an "exclude all except whitelist" option. Please listen to your customers

Exclusions do not use the path so this is not an issue.  An exclusion on discord.exe would work regardless of install directory.
