WindowBlinds and SkinStudio Wishlist

from JoeUser Forums
I am just writing down things that I have noticed. Some of them may be already available and I am not aware of it.

WindowBlinds
- in the advanced user setting section a new item: behave like trial edition.
- headerbar section: - skinstudio says the image can be transparent and translucent. But it does not work when applied..



SkinStudio:
- Preview Skin:
- More controls on the preview section.
- A screenshot option from the preview section.
- It would be nice if the preview shows start panel with content and an expanded more programs menu using some standard items.
- At least one task bar button with each state displayed on the task bar.
- Ability to type in the filename (or just the ability to edit the entire code directly)
- If you type in the file name in the text box inside the dialog that pops up, it has no effect. You need to click the browse button.
- Option to delete the temporary files (*.wb* etc) before applying a theme.

SkinStudio: A help file would be nice. :D

SkinStudio 5 has limited help. Version 6 takes you to wiki and it is almost empty! Some places have no help link at all.

Just another thought: We do have many community projects. How about a community project to update wiki for SkinStudio?

Tools/preferences/interface select "show the code editor tab"

Tool/clean skin

This shows you a list of all the files not used in your WB. Creates a temp folder in you skin folder which you can delete.

Thank you 2of3. I had the older version of SkinStudio 6. Wasn't updating to any pre-release for a while. New version has it.

More than getting rid of temporary images, my idea was a clean loading of the skin by WB. WB seems not to update certain areas when reloading if the *.WB* files are present.
