Description Longhorn styler toolbar for xp


Older version with different navigation buttons included.
Added custom findeXer icons.
Slightly modified navigation and other buttons.
Added version with Folder icon.
Purple toolbar capable*

*I may release a modified version of Longhorn Express by Flahron, it has glass startmenu, taskbar, and purple stripe on bottom of the toolbar background, perfectly fits the styler toolbar. Just need permission to release...

I've got this idea when I was working on the seven styler skin. Just thought, why can't styler not only look like longhorn,but also be fully functional like other styler toolbars, I combined the idea of few wonderful aero redux stylers by savouryspacemonkey athens toolbar which showed a fake "Computer, all storage>Library contents" and most importantly flahron's Jadaero styler, though I had to change almost everything there to suit the longhorn slate theme.
The idea is by doom1468 - i saw his amazing explorer concepts and wanted to make just like one, only more functional.
Navigation problem solved, the addressbar is perfectly integrated to the dark panel, and works just fine.
I'm also planning on releasing these findexer icons which i found on other screenshots.

Enjoy!

did you create the buttons (back, forward, options) yourself or do you have them from any pack?

fediaFedia In reply to LeZaar [2009-04-28 15:37:44 +0000 UTC]

They're from longhorn I think, I don't remember because it was long ago, but I didn't create them from scratch (it would look inaccurate)

You can upload a transparent 'New Folder' button?
Or...,better: You can write 'Nova Pasta' in this?

What font do you use in your toolbar?

fediaFedia In reply to ViXPta [2008-05-12 21:43:55 +0000 UTC]

I don't see what's wrong with the New Folder button, it's fine.
If you want translations, you can translate it yourself with Paint.NET or something. Use Arial or SegoeUI or Tahoma, any will do...

Nop, if you try to install it freshly. It works only if you had styler installed on SP2 before.

Hey, I modified your mod of the styler skin so that the new folder icon minus the text is to the left of the separator. This shifts all the thumbnail, tile etc to the right allowing more space for the address to bar to extend. Maybe you can add this into your next versions? I can send you mine if you want to see what I mean. I have also tried adding more icons to the right of the separator like in the Longhorn concepts however I cant find any more styler commands. I was going to add print, mail, play styler does not have enough options for this. (Although for eyecandy I did add print as StylerEBrint.png etc) Useless but it looks nice.

That's a little trick with the toolbar background, It's a edit in the WB style.

ChocSoldier [2008-02-16 08:18:46 +0000 UTC]

This is what I have so far.

I suggest you replace the Documents icon with a Longhorn Folder icon (yellow one, can be found in Flahorn's pack), and moving Items In more to the left because the icon is a lot less wider.
