paint shop pro 7 only skins the UIS2 frames and frame buttons. Any chance of getting all of the rest of the graphics to skin?

Wow, now that is a very old PaintShop Pro! You should really upgrade.

Your problem sounds a bit weird though as PaintShop Pro does not skin anything, it only uses the UIS2 frames for windows within the program. You say it only skins the frames and buttons, but UIS2 frames only have the frames and buttons, nothing else.

I believe that betas are only available to current Object Desktop subscribers.

I don't know about that Hank. I could be wrong but this is what is posted above. But if this person isn't an OD subscriber he wouldn't see the beta. So if someone purchased the stand alone I have no idea where they would get the beta.

Quoting gmc2,

Actually that's not true. Things that used to skin with WB7 and WB10 does not are things such as pull down menus - mouseover for pull down menus - spinners - track bars - standard buttons - tab backgrounds - group boxes - and any other graphics associated with an older program. As PSP7 is my primary in use program it quite unnerving to see windows default non-graphics while using. 

I went back to a restore point, which has created some other issues. Hopefully something can be worked out with Stardock to update WB10 for older programs (circa 2000 - eeks) or provide me with usable WB7/SKS7 programs as the restore didn't go as desired.

Can we assume you're working on the start button mouseovers not working?

 

Be it Start10 or Windowblinds 10.

Can you describe the nature of the problem in more detail?  I am not familiar with it.

With the 3 new skins (Ice, Eva and The Captain)  I'm seeing this. When I right click on any icon in the task bar the menu text is white. All other skins are good.

Both my laptop and desktop are running 8.1. It happens to both.

That is because it's a win10 skin. Will work on 7 and 8 but needs adjustments. If you can use SKS and a image program easy fix for this area. Go to edit startmernu/startmenu popup menus.  Go t the jump list top part. Edit that image and make it darker save the change and put it back in SKS. Apply skin

On Windows 10 it is almost black ALMonty, try making it RGB color 32,32,32, that should look fine.
