Some of the programs in my ini include QCD Player, Felix, Trillian, ASticky, iTunes, Windows Media Player, About This Mac (Panther) and the Windows Taskbar.
Get it right here.

Thank you very much!
THANKS! Finally! A good soul! (Y)
A problem with AddShadow.
I put it in the startup menu.
I discovered that this app can be closed but the shadows remain enable (for example the taskbar shadow).
Ok i also discovered that this app slows down several apps; when you open the Windows Explorer you have to wait about 1-2 seconds, same behaviour concerning the folders; if you double click a folder icon to open it in a window then you have to wait 2 seconds...
By the way no way to start and stop this AddShadow automatically ?

just put this in your qcdplayer directory and link it from your dock.
It opens both qcdplayer and addshadow.exe. The shadow gets registered, then the script shuts down addshadow.exe. You must have addshadow.exe addshadow.ini and this script all in the root directory of qcd 3
Works great for me milage may very. you will get a quick dos cmd pop up that flashes when you launch the bat file of course. basically I have the bat file with and itunes icon.
and I'm all set now
You may need to reset your default folders in qcd options when launching this the first time.
get it here
Who have it jet?
I really need it. :cry: :cry: :cry:
There is an incompatibility between addshadow2 and modded iTunes or addressbook
See the pic attached.
Any suggestions????

Sorry Anngel, you must use winfx to enable add a shadow. I really wish it worked for Y'z shadow. 
I take it that you're using Y'z. Winfx automatically shadow's Kazaalite for you, so you don't have to mess around with Add A Shadow.
no, i'm using winfx but i'm using a skin for kazaa(glass) and winfx doesn't shadow it
You need to find out the window class for the window before you can add it. I use winspy to do that.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>
That's weird. I'm using the same skin right now for kazaalite, and everything is shadowed. Does anyone else have this same problem? Hmmm....Try adding this to Add A Shadow's .ini file.....Class=KaZaA. You might have to type it the same way shown with the upper/lowercase letters. Hope that works for you.
Sorry for bumping back this old thread, but is it possible to get it to add shadows to all of the windows in Photoshop CS? Also, I can't get it to add shadows to QT or the taskbar.
Thanks
Anyone? I've been toying around with Winspy but it hasen't really worked.
PM me your email and I'll send it to you.
Also, if you want to get information of a window, search for an app at http://www.tinyapps.org/
I forgot the name of it but there's something there that let's you find information of windows.
Hmm wierd, I sent it to you via You send it.
Anyway, here is the link:

Anyone else who wants it could get it there....for 7 days!
i sent it via this forum interface, hell knows where this way goes backwards. lol
thx for da link.

thanks a lot punk
This is what I'm looking for!!!
For -the-love-of-our-dear-lord-in-heaven-Jesus-Christ- Is there and way to add a shadow to BSplayers borderless video window?
for the love of our prophet,
Dude... you can ask questions without being an ass!!! Anyway.. if you are using WinFX, Addshadow will do the trick if you use the name in the titlebar of the window you want to add the shadow to OR if you know the class name of the window.
Thanks for the quick reply.
I am afraid that it is not that simple.
The window is a borderless (so also titlebarless) video window.
Using winspy I find that the window class is BSPVideoWindow and the Window Name is VideoWindow.
I tried every possible combination in the addshadow.ini file, upto and including:
Class= BSPVideoWindow
Class= VideoWindow
Class= BSPlayer
Class= BSPlayer.exe
Class= C:Documents and SettingsGoldDesktopNew Folder (6)bsbsplayer.exe
Caption= BSPVideoWindow
Caption= VideoWindow
Caption= BSPlayer
Caption= BSPlayer.exe
Caption= C:Documents and SettingsGoldDesktopNew Folder (6)bsbsplayer.exe
Quicktimeplayer also refuses to shadow, even after trying longshots such as,
Class=ATL:0C686598
Caption=ATL:0C686598
In the .ini file.
I have tried all I know, using both addshadow and addshadow2.
Since you are the creator of this utility to you have any further advice?
Try it yourself:

Free version down the page.
Disable video borders in the video options. If we could get this to work it would be the first time that we would have shadowed borderless video's.
PS: Thanks for all the years of skinning Jef!
