Title: Two Questions Post by: Yushatak on September 11, 2010, 10:07:04 pm The first one should be easy - so I'll start with it:
Where do I change the caption bar text color for a maximized active window? I found how to change it for a normal window, an inactive maximized window, but not an active maximized window. Also, is there a way to set it for an inactive normal window separately? Or must they share.. The second question is weirder.. I set up a custom status pane (bottom of explorer window) and it works fine in test mode. "Alright," I think, "I'll now save and apply the theme". I do so, and the status pane stays exactly the same as in Aero, even though the test mode worked perfectly. I figured explorer might be caching data somehow so I restarted it. I then figured perhaps Windows cached this data, so I restarted the PC. Still no go. Any idea? Title: Re: Two Questions Post by: 3am on September 11, 2010, 10:46:33 pm 1) Add these: Windows and Caption Buttons > Aero > Dwm Window > Frames > Normal > Top > MaxInactive > TextColor:Color
Windows and Caption Buttons > Aero > Dwm Window > Frames > Normal > Top > MaxActive > TextColor:Color Add the textcolors with the Add Property button. 2) I don't know offhand. If it tests it should save. Title: Re: Two Questions Post by: Yushatak on September 12, 2010, 02:29:28 am I made a screepcapped video of the problem to perhaps better illustrate it...

Title: Re: Two Questions Post by: Yushatak on September 12, 2010, 06:12:12 am Link is definitely fine, but maybe you need an account to watch private videos. I'll make it public...
Edit: Ah they added a new feature I think, or I didn't realize there was a difference between unlisted and private. Link should work now.

Is there a shell folder in the directory where your theme is located? The details pane is themed through Shell32.dll to Shellstyle.dll from the MSStyles Title: Re: Two Questions Post by: Yushatak on September 12, 2010, 07:08:48 am No there is not - I first was trying it in the root folder my themes dir, and then I created a folder for it and hex edited aero.theme to point to it. What should I do to get a shellstyle.dll - just copy it from Aero? Is what I did the correct way to get a .theme file, as well?

To make a .theme file you can copy aero.theme and edit it in notepad. Title: Re: Two Questions Post by: Yushatak on September 12, 2010, 10:27:27 pm Thanks much, Mr. Panda - works now.
