Description FlumXP is a theme that I started working on before SlanXP 2.0. And now it's finished. It's not very original, but it should be functional.

TO EVERYONE WHO GETS VERY SMALL CAPTIONBUTTONS. (CLOSE, MIN, MAX) READ!
I've noticed that in some screenshots the captionbuttons (close - min - max) is set to the smallest availble option! The captionbuttons are supposed to look like they do in the preview image. If they don't do that, PLEASE reply with any info on your XP setup. What language you use, what kind of font options you use, which uxtheme patcher you used etc.

Any questions about Visual Styles? See my FAQ first!

---

FOOBAR config in the new screenshot isn't finished yet.

More substyles (color options) may be added later.

Known issues:
- None at the moment.

UPDATE 5: (16/4 - 2007)
- Captionbar height changed to 18. This fixes the "top resize" problem. This also moves the captionbuttons a bit closer.
- Scrollbuttons edge color made a bit darker. (Against the rules. It should have the same color as the 3dshadow, but they can be hard to see if you have an extremely bright monitor.)
- LargeFonts setting uses Tahoma 8 as an option. ExtraLargeFont uses Tahoma 10 as an option.
- TaskBand positioning fix.
- Blank shellstyle included.

UPDATE 4: (15/4 - 2007)
- Somehow the msstyle file didn't get updated yesterday. Download the theme again!

UPDATE 3: (14/4 - 2007)
- Message box borders fixed.
- GradientActiveCaption etc changed to blue.
- Font size 2 now uses Tahoma 8 instead of 9.
- Scrollbar changes. Size set to 15 and ThumbGripper image removed.
- Other minor fixes.

UPDATE 2: (13/4 - 2007)
- Group button fixed.
- Scrollshaft made a bit darker.
- Other minor fixes.
- Wallpaper included.

UPDATE: (A fast one )
- Captionbar sysbutton and text fixed.

This VS is absolutely gorgeuos and easy on eyes. Can you please consider following updates in your next release?
- the top of the Window can not be stretched to fit the area above
- task bar items, if separated by a button like effect, would look better
- include a ShellStyle

lassekongo83 In reply to vipuldk [2007-04-16 17:45:16 +0000 UTC]

Thanks.
I'm going to make another update with some bug fixes and maybe some other graphical fixes. The resize issue is my top priority right now.

I may include a blank shellstyle that just gives the choice to select the theme if it's placed in the /resources/themes/ folder. I have no experience in creating shellstyles.

vipuldk In reply to lassekongo83 [2007-04-16 18:56:58 +0000 UTC]

black ShellStyle will work. All you need is a reference to it and we can then upload whatever shell we like! Thanks you. I look forward to your next release. Please do honor my request for task bar items that show up separately rather than just all looking merged! Take a look at [link] it has what I am asking for at the tak bar level. After Klarheit theme, your's is the best that has come out in a long time! Good luck.

Request: make min/max/close button bigger.

Bug in Upd #4 (15-Apr): Large Font size is now small (Tahoma 8). On a laptop screen with a native resolution of 1400 X 1050. The normal font looks microscopic. With Upd #2, setting to "Large Fonts" make the VS looks OK.

Or may be you intentionally made the Large Fonts the same size than Normal font. If so what is the purpose?

lassekongo83 In reply to Stradivarius [2007-04-16 05:11:02 +0000 UTC]

Tahoma 8 was added as an extra font option for those who don't like Trebuchet MS (that works best with ClearType.) I will probaly make a small update with Extra Large Fonts set to Tahoma 10.

Stradivarius In reply to lassekongo83 [2007-04-16 12:15:59 +0000 UTC]

OK, now I see. Don't bother too much however, I can still go to Display properties and change the font and size manually. This takes a few minutes but it's OK.

Some authors also use the font size to offer several font faces. But somehow they could name the item to the font name. For example "Large Fonts" is renamed to "Tahoma". I believe they use ResHack for this. But I think you know much better.

This is a very nice VS, lassekongo, but I have to say that I still prefer SlanXP 2... Mostly because I like dark VSes altogether too much

In any case, this is a very well designed VS and it works perfectly fine for me, though I'll be sticking with SlanXP 2 for the moment

Looking good (as always).

But why do visual styles always have to be blue or gray/black. That's completely boring. You could be more innovative if you added some COLOR.

Another request: change the color of the flashing task (in the taskbar) to something more contrasting to catch user attention. Currently, it is barely noticable (if not at all).

Request: Can you make the scrollbar darker? It is almost invisible. Try FlumXP on a laptop and you will see what I mean.

Then there are just minor changes that needs to be done. Background color and button color in trackinfo mod.
