Title: Re: Reflections what are they? Post by: Panda X on April 28, 2011, 03:33:47 am Can I use a graphic? Or is just color? John Well since there's already an image there, that would answer your question. Title: Re: Reflections what are they? Post by: 3am on April 28, 2011, 03:34:38 am Can I use a graphic? Or is just color? John Look at the image in, for instance, Windows and Caption Buttons > Aero > Dwm Window > Reflections > Main What do you see? It's a semi-transparent graphic right? 1) You only see them where there's transparency 2) Good place to see them is in Aero Peek or when you hold down the mouse during Aero Snap 3) You can make them more or less visible by adjusting their OPACITY:INT values 4) You can change them by opening them in an image editor. Or just replace them altogether. Title: Re: Reflections what are they? Post by: RBCC on April 30, 2011, 04:36:01 am Thank you, 3am and PandaX
Title: Re: Reflections what are they? Post by: Poopcow23 on April 10, 2013, 01:33:43 am My objective is to have the reflection image & desktop BG align seamlessly. So as the only distinction between the two is the window border/content. Yet this has proven to be quiet more challenging than I thought. Trying different variations in resolution & the display type [tile,stretch,center etc.] yet, still slightly off. I am determined to achieve my goal. Im not an expert but I think the problem lies within how the image is displayed on the desktop. As if the picture is displayed slightly off the screen, [1x -1y]. If that makes sense. Anybody have a cleaver trick or something I am overlooking?

Title: Re: Reflections what are they? Post by: Panda X on April 10, 2013, 09:39:18 pm The reflections aren't aligned to the desktop to begin with and they aren't static, they always move about, so they'll always be off.
