Description -----------------

20 2 2010

32 bit version download [link]

64 bit version download [link]

-----------------------------------

19 2 2010

i will try to organise it today [instructions etc] , upload it today or tommorow.

For the Gray (leopard) styles when using Yz shadow its better to follow the values i give you. [link]

Deselect also values in taskbar and menu.

------------

18 2 2010

Upload will come this or next week. [32 bit and 64 bit system files will included, or will uploaded separately because of the size in mb]


-------------------

15 2 2010

I decided to find a solution for the length of the button of the combo box, similar to macos x size 22 pixels looking.

So see where it is written in screenshot 1. Moblile Pc Display , ---> the blue button on the right, it has length 22 pixels.

off topic ******
[length='mecos' in ancient Athenian also Ionian language and in Byzantine and in nowdays Greek, and 'macos' in doric and aeolian ancient greek dialects and in nowdays tsaconian= spartan dialect that still speaken in some villages in southeasern Pelloponese, where is my hometown, and also in Ancient Greek Macedonian and Aeolian Thessalian dialect]. ******

I have also added some styles with always opened folderband and addressbar, and no button to the top right edge of the window .[see the explorer window]
Also to this screenshot i have not used The Ave's application which makes the buttons more close, for anyone see the difference on looking when not used .

------------------

11 - 2 - 2010 thaks to longhornfusion [link] resolved the biggest incompatibility in my code that windows clasic theme Ddid NOT WORK after the modifications i have made in code. NOW clasic Theme WORKS, SO if by any case you need to run your system in Safe mode or by any other chance classic theme is needded, it will WORKS with no problem.

-----------------------

8 february updated brushed and gray styles added.

for having close the min,max,close buttons an Ave's application needed , because that application is beta and not realeased in general public, it is possible to release styles in the older style with bigger distances betwween the buttons.

=============

ZEUS osX msstyle + system files for windows 7 coming soon(possible next weeks of February)

IN ancient and in nowdays Hellenic (=Greek) [Active CODE] language, every letter, and every word is a specific number, and it has a specific meaning.
ZEUS ( or DEUS or DIAS) is Master of immortal Gods in Hellenic (=Greek) Active CODE [arithmetic machine logic] language, and APPLE is the given gift from ZEUS .

So the name of the THEME will be choosen from Hellenic = GREEK history and civilization.

This a Work from Hellas=Greece dedicated to all people support the Hellenic = Greek History, Philoshophy and Civilization.
----------

This is a publication of my personal version of aero msstyle + system files i modify and use.
I am working to this from January 2009(with windows 7 beta, then rc1 , and windows 7 rtm after) UP to now February 2010.
I use also most of the images i have designed from November 2006 UP to January 2009, for my mac style mstyles for windows vista.

That because i have decide not to make just a new theme (on mac style) for windows 7, but to give a new kind of (mac os X ) ' behaviour ' to the interface.

The visual styles which is ready is a transparent one like that in screenshot, another one with address bar opened, and another with folderband opened, also its possible to give also other 3 similar 'leopard' [gray compact color titlebar] versions.

---------

Mac style of an explorer's window background [light blue and white lines] is made by changing the code , no extra program is using.

The code is re-written for having a more mac functionality the system.
For now we can have a folder as ico or as details to look similar to mac style .
This modification changed all the other parts code, that means that i had to rewritten the code again and again.

Also all the other changes no extra program is using, exept the min,max, close buttons setting to the leftside of the window using leftsider , and for having shadows around the windows you must use yzshadow.

------------------

INCOMPATIBILITIES

1. 11 - 2 - 2010 thaks to Longhorn fusion the problem resolved The biggest incompatibility that windows clasic theme Ddid NOT WORK after the modifications i have made in code.
Aero and aero basic works ok ,and now clasic also.

2. The windows 7 system behaviour to 22 pixel (small icon) taskbar is unbelieveable not applicable!
That means that everytime you log in to your system, taskbar becomes bigger[than 22pixels], and you have manually do this:
right clik to taskbar, select Properties, Uncheck Use small icons, Resize your taskbar as possible small, then check Use small icons and that s it.
To my system[32 bit win 7 rtm] I do this, i set first small icons taskbar size on top of desktop, after i set before shut down, or log off etc the taskbar to the bottom , when i log in i set the taskbar to the top and works ok, though to people i gave for testing my work [they use 64 bit win 7 rtm] this last method i use, does not work !

3. in screenshot the close, max, min buttons look in very short distances, because i have used a before realeased application that Ave made, so perchaps because since now its not realeased, its possible to realease an older version of my mstyles to this point.

4. There are perchaps some things not working as should, because i have changed the code thousand times, and the problem is this: everytime a parameter is changed or new code added, it is possible that because of this hundred other parameters changed behaviour. And if i see i am trying to 'fix' them, so i hope to not miss something, its too difficult, and too much for one person.

5. do not change border padings.

6. do not change font size (leave it 96 dpi font size), this project is designed and constructed to work and appear well only in 96 dpi font size.

7. on start panel [left side of it] its more elegant to use small icons via right clik to start panel, properties, start menudeselect use large icons,press ok, then press apply. But also big icons are working ok.
---------------------

6 2 2010 + BRUSHED style (Second screenshot)
-------------

All features referenced in my work are subject to change.

I do not allow modifications of my work. i have to reffer also people like iceman and chrisKite(=flyaKite osX) who show to all pc users the magic world of mac lookig on pc.

The theme will have some limitations in use, as i have not enough time to complete in the way i want.
Also, i will try to make some different versions(not at once).

All features referenced in my work are subject to change.

Special thanks to Panda x , DM-moinmoin , Patrickgs , and and Yoni (Rafael Rodriguez) .

amazing style. easily one of the best ive seen. i used to use Zeus OSX on vista and when i upgraded to 7 i was waiting for a 7 release. thanks a million. one question, how did you change the libraries and favorites icons in the navigation pane? thanks again

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

ZEUSosX In reply to Samskies [2010-03-10 09:43:58 +0000 UTC]

what do u mean?
the icons , are in imageres and shell32.dll.

sometimes the windows system 'holds' temporarily some folder icons the 'look' that they have before, so for eliminate this [which a windows characteristic 'function' and not of my files] do this :
personalize, display, shange from smaller to medium[125%] , log of [or restart] log in, then again personalize, display, shange from medium to small[100%].
If not at once after sometime, the folders of your active system files should work.

--
also if u right clik to navigation pane , just select 'show all folders'.

a question, so 125% DPI won't be compatible with this theme?
My new laptop has 1080p screen and I'd like to increase to 125% font size.

ZEUSosX In reply to WhiteApple26 [2010-02-17 07:40:04 +0000 UTC]

unfortunately not.

To this i needed more time for making visual styles compatible with larger scale font sizes.
The only i could do is giving a mocrosoft Aero style compatible with my style for people that want work with larger dpi sizes.

Even if i made a 120, 144 or 196 dpi font size that does not mean that the styles will look very much mac on dimentions.

its possible this[or next] week to upload it, as u see even now i have made some changes, and ofcourse i could made more but i am too tired for that.

My theme has nothing to do with whatever you have ever seen since now
[in the world of windows].
i do not say its good or bad, i say it is DIFFERENT. It makes the WindowS system not only look but to behave different, specialy to selected folders like macos X, AND also have stripes as background when we select our folders as details.
i have setted also 2 different kind of content looking images.and thousand other things ....
