Title: Windows task manager separator color ?
Post by: koumy on June 08, 2020, 12:01:35 pm
Hi

I just upgraded to windows 2004 and noticed this white part not skinned in TASK MANAGER ( performance tab )

(https://i.imgur.com/26pWy8f.png)

Looked in listview / column details but doesn't seem to match :/

Any idea please ?

Thanks !

Not in msstyles.

I think it's 31222.png in Taskmgr.exe.mun

well my advice for the moment is to leave as..


Had a blank  window with performance tab by changing for black 31220 & 31223 png .
No patient enough  now to isolate the culprit :/
But surely this seem to be the file to play with ( unless some direct UI to find may be more secure )

oh yes

I'm considering when having time to mess with 31223 png . It's white and 8 x 1 pixels , maybe this is the one taskmanager uses and stretch as resizer .

Trying to reduce width .

EDIt: it's not fully white , it has the firt pixel light grey from left

I still bet it is 31222.

It has the correct gray part with rgb 217,217,217. The others don't.

3am my friend you are invaluable ..  ;)

I was close to give up for that and made another try with your bet .
So 31222 is the upper part I colored blue and 31224 is the bottom part colored dark grey for testings.
I now have to find the middle part .
I surely screw at first when applying a transparent background or so . Plain color seem safe to not vanish this window.
That said , sounds crazy to use 3 parts for such single location lol

I will make some other tries with reduced width etc

good job !

Attached are UIFILES 30001 and 30024 translated and formatted as text files if you want to look  :)

This dashSidebarDivider looks promising in 30001:

id="atom(dashSidebarDivider)"
         layout="borderlayout()"
         layoutpos="right"
         padding="rect(0rp,7rp,0rp,0rp)">
         <Element
            background="sgraphic(31222, 4, -1, 0, 0, 1, 1)"
            height="45rp"
            layoutpos="top"
            width="8rp"/>
         <Element background="sgraphic(31223, 4, -1, 0, 0, 1, 1)" layoutpos="client"/>
         <Element
            background="sgraphic(31224, 4, -1, 0, 0, 1, 1)"
            height="45rp"
            layoutpos="bottom"
            width="8rp"/>

Well nice find again , despite I'm not mastering as you ui2bin mostly when having to import edited data back in the UI sections lol

That said it surely match for 31222 & 31224 with sizes but I tried mess with 31223.png and whatever I do with is blanking the performance window tab .

I dunno what to think about this part about 31223 you highlighted with the values and for client "  :|:

<Element background="sgraphic(31223, 4, -1, 0, 0, 1, 1)" layoutpos="client"/>

Hi 3am

Made few more try with width set to 0 but doesn't change compare to 1 pixel , the same but worth the mod reducing size to 1 .

However I have an important question about directUI and ui2bt:

your converted files are not the same size when I tried on my own ( mines are smaller size ) , using uib2t 1.03 and under windows build 19041 x64
Followed your steps ( exported as raw files then use uib2t

Is there something I missed or doing wrong ??
I ask because I was thinking if I tried myself with my converted files maybe I wouldn't have the same result when importing

I told you I'm not skilled with this UI lol
Thanks for clarify :)

I don't know why the file sizes are different.

Use your own files and see what happens.
