I'm using the Apple white keyboard under XP, SP1 and everything is fine (automatic installation) only the three keys prtscn, scoll lock, and pause/break aren't supported. I don't use these, except the last to stop runaway DOS programs. I have run Applekeys, but that's no help. The keyboard is very neat. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/smiles/sb.gif" border=0 ALIGN="absmiddle" A
I apologise if this query is not appropriate for this board. Is there a way of using Keyboard Launchpad to set the F15 key on the apple keyboard to the usual windows `pause/break'. Can one use the key code? If so what is it?

Now I think I understand. Thanks for your patience. The box in question only comes into play if the first box `total exclusion' is checked. Excusion = total exclusion. If anyone could check that the title animation in Aquarium doesn't work for an application that is `specified' in `per application' I would be grateful. It's probably not vital, only interesting. <img src="http:/
I see what you say. So the answer to my question is the default skin. And this should be so whether or no the box is checked. ? But, therefore, what does this box actually do? I refers to apps launched by the excluded app, so it must affect these in some way. What way?
Let me ask a question. If I exclude an app ( say with a specifed skin) and if I don't check this box, what skin will an app launched by the excluded app have? Will it be the default skin or the specified skin?
I'm not surprised. To me the English of the exclusion window seems to read that, if the box IS checked, then the launched apps are NOT excluded, ie have the default skin. Conversely, if it is NOT checked then the launched apps SHOULD be excluded too. (Sorry about upper cases). Actually I've tried both ways with the same result -- the launched app is default. <img src="http:
More problems. When I set WB to apply a specified skin and leave unchecked the box `this exclusion is not inherited by any apps launched by this app', and then do launch another app from the excluded one, this launched app appears in the default skin. Further, when the specified skin is Aquarium the small animation is motionless in the excluded app. This even happens if I use Aquarium as the general skin but `exclude' an application using Aquarium as the spec
Maybe I miscounted. Sorry. I have checked a few skins and the number of buttons is OK now. The problem is when `all boards' is checked. The last button is pushed off the window, almost. Since I only use the WC board it's not really a problem anymore! Thanks.
correction - the last button is OK in my present skin.
Normal (96 dpi). The point is it worked before, and when the area is restricted to just WC the last button is missing.
I'm 800x600, but that's the way I like it.
Sorry I mean the buttons run off the side of the window.
Help. The updated Stardock Central toolbar isn't big enough to fit in my window. If I restrict the area to WinCustomise it misses the last button
I think this was the source of my problem. All now seems hunky-dory. Thanks.
No I don't, but WindB has suddenly decided to work properly! I've no idea why as I think all the boxes are checked exactly as they were, but there are so many of them. The only thing was that I unchecked and then rechecked the box in XP overides `always use shellstyle defined in'. At the moment the box always comes up with `always use Blue Shellstyle'. I thought I had `Apollo' in the box and then pressed `apply changes'. Maybe this was what did it. Sorry this i
Thanks. I'm stumped but I'll keep on trying.
The buttons show there OK, as do some others from other skins. They don't work either.
Thanks for the suggestion. I have gone back to 4.20.017 but I still cannot get the toolbars to work. They did on a previous installation but I cannot retrieve this.
After a complete uninstall and install of WB (to get rid of a shareware hangover problem), toolbars are no longer skinned with the supplied icons, as eg on the Apollo skin. They were before (as was the shut down window). I think I've checked all the correct boxes in WB config. I am running the latest beta version of WB, on XP Home, but it was the same on the last `proper' version of WB. I would like to buy the Xtoon suite etc but don't feel like it if I can
OK. Many thanks for your time and help. I will transfer any skinning problems to the skinning discussion.
Still a problem (?) with toolbars in WB. Previously in say IE the buttons at the top were skinned (replaced) using Apollo. Now they are not. Also the shut down pop-up is now unskinned. Maybe I'm making some error. Also the download `completion' bar at the bottom of IE is not changed. In Apollo it should be a set of small red blobs. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/sm
Success regarding WindowBlinds. Thanks! It installed with only Aquarium skin but this seems fine, and the display properties work OK. Now there is still the problem that Save preset in IconX doesn't work!!
All the skin folders in /stardock/windowblinds/ are empty of .wba files. All I have are the skins I downloaded to a different folder.
In fact XP Corona has gone too
