SOLVED: Some WindowBlinds don't display buttons

from WinCustomize Forums

Windows 7 64 bit running WB 8.09.  Is there a solution to the problem of some blinds not displaying their min/max/close buttons?  GoldOldDays and MacSimulated are two blinds that display the problem.  The other blinds I've been using work properly.  I beleive it's a known bug.

I have no yet submitted a ticket.

Here is the WB info dump:

Yup, I noticed that as well on one skin. Does fine on 8.06. Titlebar buttons missing with 8.09.

Thanks!  Reverting to WB 8.06 fixed the missing buttons problem.

EDIT: I just emailed Stardock on this issue, it is occurring in Windowblinds 8.09 and affects ANY skin that has the title bar buttons vertical position set to a negative value (-1, -2, etc.). Hopefully they will fix the issue quickly, but I wouldn't count on it.  :S

 

EDIT: gevansmd, could you possibly remove "SOLVED" from this posts title?  It is evidently not solved. Thanks.

Nice find regarding the butoon positions.  By "solved" I mean you can downgrade to 8.06 in the mreantime.  I think if someone searches for this problem they can apply the temporary solution.
