Brother, 2 things.

• The first is that I don't understand why it looks like this after having installed everything, is there a solution? (Attached image)

• The second is that I made a bash installer (tested on Linux Mint 21 "Vanessa"). I'm still not very good at writing bash xD, but it works to install all the packages your project contains. once the installation process is finished the script modifies the cursor, the icons and the theme, the panel must be customized manually, maybe it will help you or maybe you can extract something you need. winxp-tc.sh.zip

Thank you for such a beautiful project.

Yes - you need to install the forked XFCE panel under /submodules, it contains a fix for this backported to 4.16.

The second is that I made a bash installer (tested on Linux Mint 21 "Vanessa").

Could have a look - I'm not sure when I'll start working on an installer atm. Needs to be distro-agnostic and whatnot - I have a lot of notes in my head I should write down on #81 .

Then maybe it can help you extract the dependencies, it's for all ubuntu based :P I will try the panel

The problem with the gray background was solved, I only have that space left, that with other themes (like adwaita) the menu opens well.

Yeah I'll have a look it might come in handy for 'post-install' tasks. I've been kind of brainstorming how the project can try to support whatever distro the user is running (and how to handle various setups - if they have no DE installed yet or if they are not on XFCE). It's kind of complicated but I should write some thoughts down.

Weird... does this happen if you adjust the default system font in XFCE settings to Tahoma Regular 8pt?

wow beautiful! "Normal Ubuntu 8".

I began to investigate to adapt the script that I made, it is possible, the problem comes when you have to play with the arrays of the panel, although I suppose that there must be an option to save the config and restore it on another computer, I don't know, I have to do tests, but I'm not sure, It's more of a hobby than a job. and I'm very lazy xD

Hmm, maybe I'll have to check if there's a widespread bug with larger font sizes then. I know winver has issues with large font sizes but didn't know about the Start menu.

Still need to fix #153 as well

[chmodmasx]

take it easy, don't stress and do it to be happy, as a hobby, otherwise you'll end up hating the project xD If I knew how to program I would help you, but what I know is very basic. Maybe if you need to test and don't have time, I can help. Telegram chmodmasx

Yea don't worry I 'chip away' rather than work on this flat out. It's just good to keep bugs in mind so I don't forget to sort them out eventually. :grin:
