Layers issue with WB5.5

Published on April 27, 2007 By Tabbiefox In WindowBlinds

Howdy,

I've been having this strange problem with Window Blinds 5.5 b92 lately. I've been experiencing similar behaviour before, but it massively emerged while using the Vista perfection skin on XP.
The problem concerns mixed up layers (or however is it called), frankly, I right-click for an option window and the cursor disappears *below* it.

So it does when i move the cursor at the transparent edges of any window (it again appears below the transparent skin element)
Oh, and even during my preparation of the preview picture in Adobe Photoshop it went completely berserk..

It does happen with other skins, but it's deffinitely not this wide-ranging.. guess other skins are just much more simple

Any solution to this? (Should I drive over my graphics card?

The environment it runs at:

WindowBlinds 5.5 (build 92 x86)
Windows XP SP2
RADEON X700 Series (supports per-pixel)

The cursor appearing behind the windows is a Windows layering bug and has been declared "not going to fix."

I've had that "problem" too, but only when using CursorXP.

Me too, though I've only had it happen like once or twice. I'm just regurgitating what GR has said.
