Will the DirectSkin plug-in get the WB5 Update?

Published on November 25, 2005 By MistressDaiyu In Object Desktop

Hello,

My Radeon 9600 is working well with WB5 RC1, and I'm looking forward to the WindowsFX update. I'm just now transitioning from WB 3.51 to WB5 (I tried 4 a few times but, well, long story) and I'm pleased that even legacy skins are working, even my crappy illegal skins.

I also note that just about every skin I've tried works fine with the Direct-Skinned ATI Catalyst control center. HOWEVER, I'm not getting the glass transparency from Kol's VistaXP skin; instead, its just running in "Aero Metal" mode (yet all other windows are in Aero Glass).

Seems like an update of the ActiveX plug-in (wbocx.ocx) would help here...

Great job crew, and its good to be back. Blueberry muffins for everybody (unless you burned out on them in my absence).

Regards,

-dq
