I have one issue I couldn't find a solution for on the forum yet. Firefox and File explorer both have semi-transparent/luminescent titlebars even though their colors are set the same as any other window.

This becomes an issue when windows overlap, since the whole titlebar becomes white and the buttons become invisible.

(Skype on the left, Firefox on the right.)

I've tried running Firefox in compatibility mode, using addons that modify the titlebar, and running explorer as a shell with blackbox over it. Sorry if there's actually a simple solution I'm missing.

 

Otherwise blackbox has been working great, keep it up!

Windows 10. Sorry I just tagged it instead of mentioning it.

Have you chosen transparency off in Settings?

Yeah it's turned off, but there wasn't a change.

Facing the exactly same behavior!

Has anybody found a solution to that? Some of my windows do also have transparent title bars even though i deactivated transparency in every file/menu i could find. Also deactivated transparency in every setting in the blackbox menu. I suspect this transparency to cause problems with blackbox bootup since it doesn't start when bbLeanSkin is active and does start when the plugin is deactivated.

 

Thanks in advance.

 

PS:
bbZero 1.18 on Windows 10 Pro

A bit too late for a solution, but I got a workaround (kind of). Open Advanced system settings, go to Advanced tab, click the Settings button under Performance and untick Enable desktop composition, though doing this can mess up some visual stuffs so I don't really recommend it
