Vista Style Builder, error

[stereo]

Logoff & logon, same story again.
I ask again : shouldn't be the same files for the snow leopard test, like snow leopard ?
Because, i can see there 1 file snow leopard 1.26 MB, and SL test is no file 1.26 MB
Offtopic : is that the same ( complicated ) for every change i wanna make with Vista Style Builder ?
I mean, when i wanna modify some colors ( taskbar, titlebars or whatever )

Post a screenshot of C:\Windows\Resources\Themes\Snow Leopard test open

Yes, here the same : in the folder Snow Leopard, i have a file 1.26 MB
The same file in SL test is about few kb

Send me the just Snow Leopard test.msstyle highlighted in yellow & I will look at it

 

[Bongo]

OK that file (mark in yellow last post)should not be in that folder put in in C:\Windows\Resources\Themes by itself,

There should be a .msstyle (mark in green)in there named Snow Leopard test.msstyle that is the one edited with WSB where is it?

I don't understand what do you mean.
The file i edited with the WBS is gone, i don't have it now, but i can do another one, in 2 minutes.
I'm confused now with those 2 files ( (mark in yellow / green )
How can i change it ?
For the moment, i have exactly what's in the attached printscreens, on C / Windows / Resources /Themes

OK that file (mark in yellow last post) put in in C:\Windows\Resources\Themes by itself With the others that look like desktop backgrounds with a little screen in front of it.

Then open up C:\Windows\Resources\Themes\Snow Leopard & copy (mark in red) that to C:\Windows\Resources\Themes\Snow Leopard test & rename it to Snow Leopard test (they look like 4 little screens)
& test it

I did it as you said. All i have is SL skins, ok, but the right click menu on desktop is not the way i want. And i create another file with WSB, replaced ....
I think, now i really give up.

No do not start another one. Open WSB hit the open button then hit the Open an existing Visual Style button then go to C:\Windows\Resources\Themes\Snow Leopard test (mark in green) & hit open go to Lists, Menus & Tabs > Menu > PopUpItem & edit font & color & test

Yes, i did.
I tried log off, and of course, i couldn't login again.
But i activated Try and Decide, from Acronis,before i started to modify, so now is everything like before we started ( step by step ) When i modified those file, step by step with your help, i saved ( just a backup ) the folder in E partition. I still have it.
But i'm "tired" and i give up now.
I wanna thank you for helping me, i really apreciate that.
I'll use this theme with the fonts / sizes - letters on right click - desktop, the way it is.

One question, please : if i leave the skin like it is now ( the right click menu ), and i try to modify something else ( taskbar color, or whatever) it will be the same ???

 

[stereo]

I tried again, 5 times. Everything is working okay, i can use the right click desktop - menu i want, perfect skin, perfect look, but after i restart or log off, i cannot logon back.
That's happent only when i modify this skin.
Is there maybe an option from registry, to have those letters / fonts size, bigger ? I mean right click - desktop menu ...
Maybe there is a "conflict" between aero files, after i modify those files.
If i can't fix this, i will search another MAC OS X theme which i can customize.

Yes after modify something (right click menu) it will not change if you modify lets say the taskbar, start menu, etc

OK you got the theme working.

For the logon problem
Change to a Windows Aero theme & try restart & logoff/logon to see if it will work

If i change to Aero themes, i can log off / restart.
That's the problem. With SL test theme, i cannot restart / log off
:devil:

Just the SL text , if you use the SL (not text) will it logoff/logon OK

Yes, with the theme SL ( not SL test ) i can log off - logon
But with SL test, no way !!!
LE : Somewhere is a problem with the Aero file which i modified.
I'm pretty sure about.
Are you sure i have to delete the Aero file ( 1.86 MB ) from this folder, and replace with SL test ? Maybe i have to keep both files in there.
