Hi,
I hope you can awnser me, i had made a theme, but i have two problems, the first, it's when i put some window in the top left corner, i obtain something like this http://www.nothinghere.org/bug.png and i don't know what i have to do to clear that mistake. I use LiteStep 0.24.6 (dec 9 2002)(instaler by omar (ots)), i load grdtransparent.dll, desktop2.dll, tasksnew.dll, popup2.dll, label.dll, rabidvwm.dll, systray2.dll as threaded. I don't know if it's my version, or it's module...

the second is i try to put an bmp arrow in my menu, but, it doesn't work... i have the default arrow, i tried with path, no path, with quote, without quote... i don't know what i have to do... the name and location are ok...

what wrong...

thx

Id start by first updating all the modules and builds you have to something a little more current. Also...what should be in that upper left corner? anything?

its just a white rectangle... with nothing in it, if i do a right click, i have the window or app context menu...
i dont know what is it...

for the white rectangle.. maybe it'S the rabidvwm.dll (always there after update), and for the arrows, it's now fonctionnally :p thx

The white rectangle might because you have called a module but haven't used it or used it correctly. For example you may have defined a label but not used it anywhere. As a result it appears at 0,0 with default settings... I think.

I would suggest commenting out each module one by one until you narrow it down then check your code for it's use.

i'll bet it's tasks.dll. try to exclude this module from transparizing by grdtransparent.dll.

now, i comment the tasktransparencies and when i recycle... i saw it, but i change window, and i don't have it anymore... wtf ? i see, i just go to shellfront.org and dl the new tasks.dll... now i don't see something wrong... probably the module has some mistake...

thx alot guys (and girls if there are)
