Title: Start Menu and Tray Notify help Post by: VolutedDodgyD on March 27, 2009, 08:36:47 pm 1) Is there any way to make the start menu (at point 1 in pic) see through like the taskbar (at point 2 in pic)? http://www.tehupload.com/uploads/6606582c9284174ScreenShot001.bmp
2) Is there a way to increase the margins for lettering as they seem to be cut off at the ends in the tray notify at the points shown: http://www.tehupload.com/uploads/439582c92841741ScreenShot002.bmp Title: Re: Start Menu and Tray Notify help Post by: Panda X on March 27, 2009, 09:34:19 pm 1) Is there any way to make the start menu (at point 1 in pic) see through like the taskbar (at point 2 in pic)? http://www.tehupload.com/uploads/6606582c9284174ScreenShot001.bmp 1) http://stylehacks.deviantart.com/art/Composited-Programs-List-1016992642) Is there a way to increase the margins for lettering as they seem to be cut off at the ends in the tray notify at the points shown: http://www.tehupload.com/uploads/439582c92841741ScreenShot002.bmp 2) CONTENTMARGINS:MARGINS Title: Re: Start Menu and Tray Notify help Post by: VolutedDodgyD on March 27, 2009, 10:16:09 pm Would that happen to be in TrayNotifyHoriz::TrayNotify>Background? Also that stylehack wasn't quite what i was looking for and didn't seem to make a difference but thanks anyway. Also, i'm trying to change the outlay of the start menu and where the search box is, there seems to be an opaque layer surrounding it (shown in pic http://www.tehupload.com/uploads/6251523e4355f01ScreenShot003.bmp) thats if you can see it of course, and i'm trying to remove the transparency. Is it possible?

After viewing another post in regards to changing the log off buttons, I opened explorer.exe in reshack and managed to change the buttons but it doesn't seem to make any difference to the start menu. Is there something extra i need to do in order to get them working?
Title: Re: Start Menu and Tray Notify help Post by: K-Johnson on March 28, 2009, 05:38:23 am Try logging out and logging back in, if that doesn't work, then try restarting. If that fails, then you haven't overwritten the original explorer.exe.
Title: Re: Start Menu and Tray Notify help Post by: VolutedDodgyD on March 28, 2009, 06:12:53 am i tried restarting and found explorer in C:\Users\(MyName)\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Accessories\Windows Explorer.exe which is where i'm guessing the original is located.
Just realised that original is in c:\windows and got it working now. thanks Title: Re: Start Menu help Post by: VolutedDodgyD on March 29, 2009, 05:07:46 pm Still on the topic of the start menu, I have been able to change the log off and lock buttons, but is there a way to be able to create a similar style button for the side menu arrow show here: http://www.tehupload.com/uploads/06343db5c6a3b29ScreenShot004.bmp
