An issue regarding animated multiple colors

[RTFTR]

Hi, I know i should not post this issue when the animation feature is not on public release, But i think it'd be important to report this issue in advance.

When i set more than three colors,

It will crash tacky borders when a new window appears.

Here's the video:

Yeah, this is a known issue. More specifically, it will crash when you use gradients for both the active and inactive color, but with a different number of colors in each gradient. For now, you should be able to set them both to have three colors and it should work?

Thanks for the reply, With the same numbers of colors for both, It works flawlessly. Also, The context menu on the tray won't display when i set the task scheduler like this

[lukeyou05]

I can't seem to reproduce the tray icon issue. Do you have any other steps to reproduce it?

[RTFTR]

Did you restart your PC after you set the "At log on" in triggers?

[lukeyou05]

I did, and I had "Run with highest privileges" enabled as well.

Hmm then it seems to be my end, thanks for the reply

[RTFTR]

Oh and one more thing, There's an issue where all windows except for the ones maximized become blackout. Not sure if I launched the app as an administrator

Edit: Can't seem to recreate the issue because this rarely happens

[lukeyou05]

Not sure what you mean. Can you send a pic?
