Taskbar icon hover/press problem

**SOR6153** · October 21st, 2012 12:43 PM

Hi guys

I just started creating my own themes and i guess im doing good so far , im just having this annoying issue though at the moment and hope someone would help me fix it

i made the taskbar black and the itembuttons semi transparent black here...

And although the hover and pressed buttons are as you can see in the pic semi transparent black , when i hover over them or press on one , it turns to the normal colored buttons [red/green/blue] of windows like this..

So im wondering how can i fix this so the buttons i've put would actually appear instead of these colored buttons of each program im running.

Thanks =]

Ok I also have this problem.
But my best guess*I don't have any in depth experience just starting* is that that glow is set up but the program it self.
Meaning that chrome will always turn up red, itunes always blue just like skype messenger photoshop*and I guess most apps* and I don't know one witch turn green.
if you do not have a transparent taskband the most easiest fix to this would be to copy a part of your task band and then create the actual item button on top of that.
*this is also posible with icons witch are not the default hight but that will be a lot harder as I am finding out the hard way now*
But I hope I will have my icons*v2* done in a few min and then I will show what I mean.

That was GUI setting effects,it will automatically react with icons color.

hey guys

as faizalotai had stated above this is part of the windows gui when clicking on the taskbar buttons the colors come from windows itself reacting to the icon color that goes with it. There is no way to change this as it's not part of the msstyle that these colors come from but from the windows ui itself

Got some strange iseu, the flash and the normal pinned don't show up at my taskbar any Ideas?
If I check with restorator they are there, bug in windows cause of often changing of theme and restart required to fix this?
