windowblinds skins

Are you using XP? If not you won't get a skinned start menu - you have to use ObjectBar for that (it can read WB XP skins).

I'm using Win2k. If I download Object Bar to try, will it replace the windowblind skin?

ObjectBar will not replace the WindowBlinds skin. What it can do is use the skin graphics contained in the WB skin that pertain to the XP-style taskbar and startmenu.

The end effect is that the Windows will be skinned by WB, and OB will mimic the XP-style taskbar and startmenu.

hey JB,Might I refer you to a thread called Windowblinds Start Menu.Maybe your question,as I understand it,may be answered.

ok I got the shareware version of OB. I loaded a skin. I see what it does now. This is awesome! I'm gonna end up having the full version of Object Desktop!

OK I got a slight problem. I only see 3 icons on the task bar when I usually have 5. And I don't see icons on the lower left anymore next to the start button.

JB.ObjectBar takes a bit of customizing and trial and error.I choose ta bypass OB,it runs heavy on my system.I thought you were having trouble getting WB ta skin yer start menu,,sorry for the confusion-

No I didn't have trouble with WB. Just had to get Object Bar and that skinned the start menu real good

JB, perhaps what you're seeing is task grouping (in which similar tasks (say, 3 instances of Internet Explorer) are represented by one task button.

If you click the task button, you'll see a menu allowing you to select which instance to activate.

You can disable task grouping by left-clicking the task bar and deselect the task grouping option.

On the otherhand, if you're referring to the quick launch icons, you can resize the quick launch section of the taskbar to show as many as you want.

Apologies if the above does not pertain to the problem.

Indeed,OB has some fantastic choices!!I think you would really dig the whole thing,ObjectDesktop.It is endless fun!!Keep an eye on yer task mangr,,some of the bars run a bit heavy.
