Problem with Styler 1.401 shadow

Hi,

I just downloaded styler 1.401 today, when I check the "drop shadow" instead of a black shadow i see a white box thing around the window, kind of like a white shadow, I dont know if anyone else is having this problem?

Sorry for my bad English

Any help is appreciated!!

styler shadowing isn't the greatest.. i'd use another program to do it such as yzshadow or windowsfx

Yep, imo Yz Shadow does a much better job

Hmm...any guesses as to what the problem is with styler though?

Because I would rather just have 1 program running that changes the toolbar and does the shadow :)

Thanks

not sure.. but seriously... the shadowing feature on styler is horrible. just run winfx or yz shadow.

Actually, I had that problem too, is it like there is a box thats upping the brightness on whatever is behind it?, you may need to update your GFX driver.

hehehe.. yeah it is, it totaly craps around with trillian and winamp...

thats how i see the things..

Styler

+finaly free

+nicer toobars for explorers

-promblems with trillian and winamp (creates halos) dunnow if this ever will get fixed since its free now and it seems that the developing has been stopped

WindowFX

+nice window effects.. but i guess if you use it for a while you'll get fed up with it

-ran ****ing slow and crashed often for no reason

-costs money

Yz Shadow

+free ^.^

+for beeing an kinda old app still really good

-if you look closely the shadows have kind of ugly framy boarders

-sometimes eats all menus and just leaves a halo

-cant shade some apps (for example msn)

-developing has been stopped ;_;

lokai shadow service something

-cant get it working XD but its said to create shadows like in the xp menus

my opinion,

yz is still the best app out there for shadows..

all apps from mr. yamaguchi where their time far ahead.. its such a shame that he stopped developing just cuz some weirdos mail :(

for me since windowblinds can do shadows i stick with it.. in the hope that mr yamaguchi will return some day.. :(

Zacks why did Yz apps development stop?, did Apple have something to do with it?

#389024

its said that mr. yamaguchi got a mail from apple wich said that he should stop the dev of yzdock for some reason

but i think it was a fake one.. from some frustrated snob mac user who didn't like the fact that there exists a dock for win -.-

#389027

Mr. Yamaguchi actually got a Cease & Desist Letter straight from Apple, search for "Yz dock stopped" and you'll find a age old thread with more information.

#389040

do you think it was really from apple?

#389042

I can see this leading bad places...

Please veer away from this topic before flaming starts ;).

I used to use yz shadow but i found that the shadows always appear a split second after the windows do...might be because my computer sucks...

also with winfx every time i logon i have to go to my computer properties to check the minimize/restore animation because for some reason winfx disables it. kind of annoying, or i would use it, its got great shadows.

Any suggestions as to what i can do about these problems?

Thanks for any help!

I've never really found a shadow probram that truly suits me for shadows. Styler takes up too much memory, Yz Shadow is extremely buggy for me, and Windows FX is slow as molasses.. So yeah, couldn't really see anything that suits me in that field. I just gave shadows up alltogether.

・・・Please forgive my poor English.

Does not anyone make a very light application that puts the shadow?

The people of Aqua-soft seem must to be going to make it in about one

week.

Will you appeal to an excellent programmer all?
