Using Grim's custom classmap found here: http://virtualcustoms.net/showthread.php/63105-Custom-Class-Maps-for-WSB-1-5-5-6 (should work in 10...maybe he's made new ones. I don't know) Here's new ones he made for 10: http://virtualcustoms.net/showthread.php/69831-Custom-Class-Maps-and-Class-Groups-for-Windows-10?highlight=class+maps I don't know if they are necessary. Maybe so. I don't use OldNewExplorer anymore so I don't know for sure. Title: Re: Explorer background custom image Post by: koumy on December 16, 2015, 03:34:29 pm Thanks 3am , I give a look :)

Well some feedback under windows 10 pro 10586.36 3am or Mr Grim , do you know if there is any existing visual style including a custom explorer background ( I browsed the whole web without success ) so I can test- edit by myself ? I got several blank screens when trying to make my own ones :-[ ( don't understant all the steps when trying to use Mr Grim class files or shellstyle( where do I put them ? ) Drives me crazy lol Thanks Title: Re: Explorer background custom image Post by: gsw953 on December 28, 2015, 01:12:32 pm Here http://gsw953onda.deviantart.com/art/Thin-White-Line-revisited-for-Windows-10-TH2-578854258 (http://gsw953onda.deviantart.com/art/Thin-White-Line-revisited-for-Windows-10-TH2-578854258)
There is an image in 2 places Explorer & Shell > Explorer > Items View > ItemsView and Explorer & Shell > Explorer > Items View > ItemsView > Selected Property > Background You will need to use the Shellstyle.dll that is with the theme and also have New Old Explorer installed Title: Re: Explorer background custom image Post by: koumy on December 28, 2015, 02:06:23 pm Hi gsw953 and thanks for reply !
Much appreciated I really like your themes on virtualcustoms / deviantart Gonna give a try after patching system files + oldNewExplorer have a nice day and keep the hard work ;) Title: Re: Explorer background custom image Post by: koumy on December 28, 2015, 05:22:51 pm Hi gsw here is a preview of your theme with custom pic :) ( works well )
I have 2 pbs though: - how do I change font size for classic shell start menu and the one used for clock in systray? ( can't find it ) - where can I move the commandbar on top rather than bottom ? ( is it in shellstyle? ) (http://i.imgur.com/eAUoKBb.jpg) Regards Title: Re: Explorer background custom image Post by: gsw953 on December 28, 2015, 09:31:16 pm Oh sorry forgot about the bottom command bar.
Just grab a shellstyle out of one of my other 10586 themes. They all should be modified to show Explorer images Title: Re: Explorer background custom image Post by: koumy on December 30, 2015, 03:53:31 pm Thx gsw, anyway I found how to move on top here with resource hacker
(http://i.imgur.com/bFAyjZr.jpg) my current problem is to change font size of classic shell menu ?( your theme increased the size but I ca't find where to edit ) Title: Re: Explorer background custom image Post by: koumy on December 30, 2015, 05:40:45 pm nevermind, found the location t odecrease font size of classic shell menu using your theme gsw :) :D
