window shading in litestep? Thread last updated on 2003-12-22 09:42:22

I am using the latest release of litestep. I originally started with Blackbox (heh... dont laugh at me! It taught me a lot!)

One thing I have noticed that Blackbox seems to have over litestep still is the wa you can double-click a title bar to make it shade the window.

Is this type of feature available for litestep and I am just missing it somehow or does this not exist/work for litestep yet?

just asking as it would be nice to shade some things when they are active, but not focused.

Thanks for all your work.

I don't know if there is a LiteStep module specifically for this although I would guess that there might be. I haven't been around the LiteStep scene for long enough to get to know all of the modules that are around.
Your best bet would be to look through this list http://www.shellfront.org/modules-list.php of modules, theres a lot there and will probably take some time.
If that doesn't work there there are applications that will do this, Stardock's WindowBlinds for one. There are others, probably freeware somewhere if you don't feel like spending anything. :-)

i dont nkow of any litestep modules either, but i use winroll... it lets you right click on the title bar instead of double click, but i really like it

There are not only LS modules for it there is a whole nother thread just on this. Shocking I know. Download WinCntrl or whatever from SFO.

by shading, you mean roll it up, so that only the titlebar of the window is showing, correct?

yes, rolling it up to the title bar only, like the one that blackox uses.

thank you for the info DeViLbOi. Without getting each mod and reading the txt file, it's kinda hard to know what differnt mods do. And with so few listed in the actual litestep mod page, i didn't know where else to get them. :)
