hi, I have been using ultramon for a while and love it. I just installed windowblinds to run the aero-glass vista skin. the skin has a back glossy taskbar and now the text on the taskbar buttons on my left and right monitors blends into the taskar. Do you guys have any suggestions for a possible fix and/or workaround? Thanks

btw.... the band-aide solution i have right now is to have winblinds ignore the ultramon taskbars.

The UltraMon taskbar currently doesn't support WindowBlinds.

UltraMon 3 will most likely support skinning of the UltraMon taskbar via WindowBlinds, I haven't verified this yet though.

Might be a compatibility issue with the hooks used by WindowBlinds, let me know if you get a response from Stardock.

I haven't been able to reproduce the issue though, I tested with UltraMon 2.6 and WindowBlinds 5 (shareware) on Windows XP SP2.

As far as I could tell there was no slowdown when moving windows or scrolling.

Thank you for your answer.
I bought WB5 and in the shareware version, there's is no "transparency" so perhaps this the way of the slowdown...
ps : it's all the pc wich become slow not moving the window.
