Title: minimize / restore / close buttons
Post by: gheepard on February 05, 2014, 09:26:38 am
I wonder if there is a way to change the minimize / restore / close buttons
The visual styles i have are OS X. I searched everywhere but couldn't find how to change them. They look like in the image nr 1 ( round )
And i would like to have them like in the image nr 2 ( square )
Would you help me with some advices, please ?
Thank you so much

Change the images at:

Windows & Caption Buttons > Aero > DWM Window > Controls > Captions > Window > Close Button
Windows & Caption Buttons > Aero > DWM Window > Controls > Captions > Window > Restore/Maximize Button
Windows & Caption Buttons > Aero > DWM Window > Controls > Captions > Window > Minimize/Help Button

I do not have "controls" there, after DWM Window
Have a look, please

Those buttons are right there, CloseButton, Restore/Maximize Button, Minimize/Help Button. Though some people may use the glyphs instead so you can also try the Button* > *Glyph > 96dpi

After a long time, i did it, and the buttons minimize / restore / close / are squared  :D
But i wish those lines - / + / x / ( when you ONLY move the mouse over the buttons ) should be more darker / black.
What's the best color for that ? Grey ? Black ?
And, on Windows & Caption Buttons > Aero > DWM Window > Controls > Captions > Window >   where exactly ? There are more expanded options.
Thank you
Here is my visual style

Thank you, 3am. It looks good, but the black lines are too bold.
What's your photo editor for WSB ?

Make them yourself. In your msstyles they are right on your buttons:

Windows & Caption Buttons > Aero > DWM Window > Controls > Captions > Window > Close Button > Normal Button > Active > Hot and Pressed
Windows & Caption Buttons > Aero > DWM Window > Controls > Captions > Window > Close Button > Normal Button > Inactive > Hot and Pressed
Windows & Caption Buttons > Aero > DWM Window > Controls > Captions > Window > Close Button > Lone Button > Active > Hot and Pressed
Windows & Caption Buttons > Aero > DWM Window > Controls > Captions > Window > Close Button > Lone Button > Inactive > Hot and Pressed
Windows & Caption Buttons > Aero > DWM Window > Controls > Captions > Window > Restore/Maximize Button > Button > Active > Hot and Pressed
Windows & Caption Buttons > Aero > DWM Window > Controls > Captions > Window > Restore/Maximize Button > Button > Inactive > Hot and Pressed
Windows & Caption Buttons > Aero > DWM Window > Controls > Captions > Window > Minimize/Help Button > Button > Active > Hot and Pressed
Windows & Caption Buttons > Aero > DWM Window > Controls > Captions > Window > Minimize/Help Button > Button > Inactive > Hot and Pressed
