Colorize themes in WB7b2

August 11, 2009 3:54:21 PM from WinCustomize ForumsWinCustomize Forums

I'm not sure if this is a bug or just me not knowing how to do it properly, so here goes:

I installed the miricla skin.. (awesome one, one of my all time favorites for sure)... I try to click on the colours in the colours tab, and nothing happens. Do I need to enable colorization somewhere for it to work?

EDIT:

It works fine from the old UI, so there's something weird going on.

Have you tried a different skin by chance?

I have seen this too. Works beautifully in old UI. Seems to only be this skin.

Can confirm this, tested about 6 other skins on new UI they recolor fine.

From Display Properties, Appearance tab, Advanced, I have WB set to Force coloring support on all skins, still Miricla won't recolor from new UI.

Hey Mirsguy; I have also just noticed that the XP version of Miricla, in the skins list, does not show the start menu, the Vista version does.

It works with most skins, but not all. And you'll be "happy" to know that you're not alone. Tigris doesn't recolor using the new UI either.

Yeah, I saw that. Strange!

I'm just "happy" to know that it's not just my blind.

I think there's something Miricla-ous going on. I recolored it and got The Shroud of Turin.
