Its looking good.

Ain't it though - Jon is really busting it making this thing work like it should, and it is looking more and more spectacular every day....

Grimmy, did you use IconViewer as listed in the Libraries Icons - Change in step 6?

Jon is very appreciative of those, he said they help a lot, but he hasn't found a way to extract them reliably....

He's welcome, I'm glad he can make use of them, the most reliable program I've tried so far is Restorator, it makes it very easy to extract or replace just about anything, great program and heaps better then Reshack.

Restorator 2007 Resource Editor - Restorator - Bome Software that one?

Hi,

I'm about to switch to Windows 7, so I was looking around to check if all my
favorite apps will work there.

This thread assured me that I won't miss my good old Ultramon
functionality...
...except maybe one thing: The "send to another display" and "stretch to
desktop" buttons on the title bar. I don't remember seeing those on the
screenshots of DF/Windows 7. A hotkey is nice but I'd rather have them as
buttons.

Is there a technical reason not implementing it, or there is a simpler way to
do those things, which made them obsolete?

Thanks.

@Zoltan: DisplayFusion 3.1 has the titlebar buttons you are talking about, and it will be released in the next couple of weeks.
