Skinning non-standarized apps.

June 4, 2006 5:33 PM from

Hello, I purchased the full version of Object Desktop, and so far I have only installed Windowblinds, Theme Manager, and Icon Packager. I am wondering if there is a way (maybe through one of the other apps available in Object Desktop) of skinning applications that do not adhere to the normal UI style, such as iTunes, MSN Messenger, Microsoft Money, etc. It would be great to get all of these apps to follow my UI Style. Thanks!

Apps that have their own method of skinning, generally can't be skinned with WindowBlinds. An exception would be an app using Stardock's DirectSkin skinning engine, and has the option to turn the skinning off (like PowerDesk Pro 6). Or a program such as Axialis IconWorkshop, that allows you to use the Windows Standard User Interface, in which case WindowBlinds will take over the skinning.
