Good news, thanks for the continued updates and support

In 1.4 did you add editing of progress bars?  Checkboxes and butons ?  John

[AndreasV]

That ability has always been there

I'd say this one is quite an improvement on things. Although I would still like to see some more improvements on the XP > Vista porting. I could help you in the areas that need to be fixed.

How complete is v1.4 as far as customizing Windows 7? Are all images in it and properties and such?

Oh, and for RTM.

Oh, and for RTM.

I've merged the XMLs into the main tree (no more Windows 7 branch) and removed empty classes as well as moved old legacy classes into a legacy classes branch. I've named the important things so it should be smooth. I've sent the XMLs to Ave. As for RTM it works fine, the MSStyles hasn't changed since 7048 I believe. The importer script has been updated as well.
