Affected program with a Windowblind

from WinCustomize Forums
Hello. First time poster. I'm wondering if I should ask this question here, or go directly to the designer of the Windowblind in question. I'm using Vagabond by Navigatsio. For moving watching on my computer I use Power DVD. If you're familiar with this program, it starts with a small splash screen above the DVD control panel that can be maximized to view the movie which will then fill the monitor with the viewing area letter-boxed. With Vagabond if I maximize the screen, the viewing area is still only as small as the splash screen and is off-set within the larger black area. I loaded Realplayer instead of Power DVD and the movie plays in the correct orientation. So, has anyone experienced anything like this? Shall I write to Navigatsio? CyberPower? Thanks.

Is Vagabond the only skin this happens with?. I use power DVD and have not experienced this problem. Wish I could be of more help.

Have you tried excluding this program from being skinned? Open the WindowBlinds Configuration screen and click on "Change the look of a particular application". Select "Add per application setting" and find the exe for that particular application. Select the exe and then put a check mark in "Total Exclusion" Ignore this application and do not skin it.

Yep, that's what I needed to do. Works just fine, now.   

And Uvah, so far Vagabond is the only one that needed the exclusion. I've used DogmaX4 for a long time and never had to exclude Power DVD from it.
