Hi folks been searching for this solution having difficulties finding the answer after searching this site.

Having recently been saved the torture of looking at font outlines (thanks Bongo!) http://www.sevenforums.com/themes-styles/32594-aero-theme-question-3.html


Any way to change the white window outlines to either remove them or change the colour to black?

That happens with boarderless frame, it may help if you right click desktop go to Personalization\Window Color and Appearance & pick frost & slide the color intensity all the way to the left

i actually figured it out in my case, and i hope it works for you too.

do you have a Reflection Topoverlay?

remove it and all will be square.

my overlay topleft is square and not rounded off but that dosent matter for some reason. it will mess up with it there.

Bongo you should really package this theme separately from aero, its extremely well done
Personally its the best Windows 7 theme. With all the other themes i've seen (hundreds) I rarely come across one that's clean, professional and simplistic.

Thank You very much
It did turn out well glad your happy with it.
