As a WB10 user (upgraded from 8) I don't see a download link to this beta.  Are these only for OD subscribers?

Installed Windows Insider build 16296. WB 10.65, skin Old Style.

1. Vertical Taskbar: The time in the tray section is not displayed properly

2. Firefox Titlebar: The title is not displayed (appears only when hovering over a button)

3. Shouldn't the menu (desktop-right click) be transparent?

4. Explorer title bar text is garbled for long titles

4. Explorer title bar text is garbled for long titles

This may be a situation with the my WB. The text could have been lined up a bit better. Or the top inset bar could have been longer. I tried to match it to the old time skin.

As far as 1. 2. and 3. I find no problem here. Sorry about #4. Maybe you should just move on to the many other great skins available.

This update still doesn't solve the problem I reported here: https://forums.stardock.com/482904/page/1/#3687725 . Is there any hope for a fix? I am getting desperate for some feedback as right now I am on an outdated nvidia driver.
PaleMoon Browser 27.4.2 + Nvidia 380 driver.  Win10?

I'll see what I can see.

That is correct. All Nvidia drivers post 380 release result in disappearing/flickering titlebar of PaleMoon while using WB. Yes, win10 (I provide detailed infromation in the thread I linked to above).

I'll be very grateful for looking into this!

 

Edit: I just double checked the link and it's not working. I am quite ok with using different forums and providing link but here it just directs me to this very thread. The thread I want to link to is here in WindowBlinds section and its title is "Nvidia driver 380*, WB and PaleMoon browser titlebar."

Strange you do not see 1. I see it with all the skins I tried.

After I place the taskbar on the bottom of the screen horizontally and then place it vertically it looks ok. But after a few screen refreshes (e.g. change the display resolution) it gets to look like on the screenshot I attached.

This is the most annoying issue so far.

See what with all the skins you tried. You only mentioned my skin till now. I did say I see the text thing on long titles but that is all I see. Looked on win7/8/10. I would suggest again there are 1,000 of available skins use another and I'm sorry for this fault on the text.

Now you say you see it with all the skins. Sounds to me like something is wrong on your end that if me would be asking about. Don't mean to be hard here but I have made a lot of skins and this is the first time of hearing about this and only from you. I did ask a couple other people about your situation but they don't have it.
