Title: Visual prefs and Border Sizes
Post by: QuarX on February 20, 2007, 06:54:30 PM

Hi,

Why Visual prefs border settings exceed some values several programs i.e Ibrowse made invisible the images and text show in startup window.    :getmad:

Any way to avoid this? :roll:

Thx.

Images attached.

Thx for your help, you can see.

Some days ago i was made several test an finally, i discover the problem is the border settings in visual prefs the values can not exceed from 2, but with this value the icons in the corner of windows are cut.:crazy:

I like to keep these values in "4" for windows look OK.But some programs not show OK is startup window. :cry:

Ciaa.

From the visual prefs guide (known bugs section) :

"Certain windows of some MUI programs (like IBrowse) appear empty if the top border's thickness is different than (titlebar height increment + 2).
This is really a nasty problem, I don't know if I will ever be able to find a solution.
For now, set the top border to a value == (titlebar height increment + 2).
Similarly, if (and only if) the screen's titlebar height increment is set to a different value than the window's titlebar height increment, you could experience "disappearing" titlebar gadgets in some MUI programs. "
