[help] Big WB Problem

At some random point after updating WB and rebooting my computer, I ended up with this:

As you can see in this screenshot, my WB config window has screwy dimensions--I don't have the scrollbar at the bottom so I can't navigate. In other views (Per Application, etc), I can't access various buttons at the bottom.

When I try to use Windows' Display Properties instead to config my Windowblinds, settings, WB doesn't "take over" the Display Properties dialog. It shows as if Windows XP msstyles still had control over it instead of the WB dialog.

I'm using the most recent version (updated today through SDC).

In attempts to fix this, I've tried:

1) unload, reload

2) unload, reboot

3) uninstall, reinstall via SDC

4) uninstall via add/remove programs, reinstall through SDC

5) uninstall, reboot, clean registry of all WB references, install, reboot

Nothing seems to work.

Help!

. I can tell by your screenshot above of the display panel, that you've replaced the normal fonts(MS Sans serif and Tahoma)

Youre screen shots show lucidaMacbold as your main font. Look inside your selection boxes.That should be the plain old ms fonts.I've done this myself w/

a reghack. To reverse this back to normal add this to reg

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindows NTCurrentVersionFontSubstitutes]

"MS Shell Dlg"="Microsoft Sans Serif"

"MS Shell Dlg 2"="Tahoma"

Also reboot after applying reg.

Good luck

Heffy,

That's a good guess, but not the case. I have never reghacked my system fonts. My registry already reads exactly as you listed.

Hmmm sorry I thought for sure that was it. I had exactly the same symptoms and this fixed it. Well good luck. I'll do more research on hidden keys
