Text on Start Menu Shutdown Button (W7)

from WinCustomize Forums

Simple question...I hope.

Is there a way to get rid of the text that appears on the Shutdown Button on the Start menu for W7?

I did it on my last Windowblind (Hibiscus and Anoles) by making the font really tiny and the same color as the button.

I assume there is because I have several skins without that text.

I'll give that a whirl. It should work on this skin. Thanks

It sure would be nice to have the option for alpha on that text in SKS. :annoyed:

OK, I'm officially an idiot, lol. All I had to do was make a new font and crank down the alpha slider on it. ;P I'm still not used to all the new font stuff in SKS.

If you skin the Vista logoff button images and not the W7 ones, you can achieve the look you want. I did that on Tinted. The only catch there is that you can't use transparency in your buttons doing it that way--makes it look weird.

I needed transparency on this one. ;)
