Windows 7-like buttons don't look very 7-like and break on maximized windows and some apps. #16

Hey! Thanks for making v1.0.2 with Windows 7-like caption button support! To be honest, I didn't expect that! However, there is one thing: They don't look like Windows 7 at all... sad Samuel noises How the caption buttons look like How the lonely close button should look like For comparison, here's what they should look like: How the caption buttons should look like How the lonely close button should look like Is it possible to get them to look any better? Or am I just asking for too much? While we're at it, the buttons look even more broken at maximized windows! Broken buttons in maximizing windows The same applies for some apps, such as Rufus and Zoom (Sign-in and secondary windows only).

In fact, all I've done so far is reduce the height to make it similar, not identical. To be honest, I just happened to see a similar function and modified it. Also I updated the attachment a while ago, the previous one had DPI issues.

teknixstuff commented 10 months ago

none of the udwm patches work, at least currently. If anyone has a working uDWM patch on W10 21H2 or W11 that would be great.

Maplespe commented 10 months ago

We have optimized the effect of this option in the new version and it should now look closer to: 020258 Please check out the new version.

EndlessLuck commented 10 months ago

Nice job. But those button sizes are still not consistent. Would it be better to make a slider for button width and height, so users would have more control over it. Also it would allow more methods of modifications like windows 8 sized buttons.

That looks 3000 times better! It can be improved, but it's good as-is!

I would, if Microsoft didn't break them all of a sudden.

Button resizing shouldn't apply to tool windows Example of tool windows with rectangular buttons in paint.net

you gotta downgrade your dwm version to a pre 3803 version lemme know if you want a guide

To be honest I used Alcatel's Windows 7 uDWM patch and it literally bricked the whole system (i'm sad that the windows 7 like- caption button support isn't even what i expected.)

Also, i'm using Windows 10 IoT LTSC 21H2.

It would be better if you made a guide about this fix.

No need for a guide,grab an older version and swap every dwm file.

I feel like it's gonna brick the system again, although I know it might work, but i still need the Aero Glass function without really installing Windowblinds and all that mess again.

calex7z commented 10 months ago

So i think the only solution to this problem is that we need to just modify the source code or let the owner of this app modify the source code and make a warning that it will cause DPI issues.

What is bro on about How is it gatekept

Cynosphere commented 10 months ago

The fact that a forum has an unofficial Discord where everything is shared instead of posting it to the forum where it can be viewed by anyone with or without an account and won't get lost to time

We won't charge you for joining mate. Also it is available in the server. You can view it anytime. And if you don't like seeing those things only in the server you are free to cross post them. Also please look up the meaning of the word gatekeeping. You clearly don't know what it's supposed to mean.

Sorry you want to die on that hill

The server is much more active than the forums. Like I said if you want to see everything in the forums YOU will do something about it.

The maximize button is 1px wider than 7. Everything else is perfect.
