Windows not being skinned properly latest Windows 10 release

Windows not being skinned properly latest Windows 10 release

As you can see above, in Windows 10 v1803 Build 17133.1 (I am assuming this is the latest public release), some Modern apps are not being skinned properly and in other windows there is an overlap issue between the title bar and buttons and the main area of the window encroaching the titlebar.

Any word on an update to Windowblinds or a solution to the issue?

Jazlan you can make the White large open tab Any color you want. So you can match it to your skin.

Just open Groupy. On the right side look for "COLOR" Click on the arrow and click "Pick default active tab color" double click that and pick whatever color you want. 

Now go to "More Settings"  Make sure you only have one thing checked. "Show preview of inactive tabs on mouseover."

Now on the little tabe you barely see them except when you mouseover them.

 

It does help and at least you don't have the White tab looking at you.

I know that, what I really wish for is, groupy tabs that can be skin just like tabs in windowblinds .

I was just about to make this post till I found this.

Windows 10, version 1803 Spring Creator's Update doesn't skin the settings menu at all.

Also the Skype people's shortcut doesn't skin either. 

Here is a picture:

Its known that you will always have some apps not skin properly under Windowblinds specially those that using UWP (Universal Windows Platform) such as Skype download from Microsoft App store, while normal Skype can still skin normally.

Will it be addressed though?  And how come this is an app by app cases?

It's a common knowledge that Windowblinds cannot skin every portions of apps on windows system while the developer trying his best to workaround the issues. :rolleyes:

The People bit not skinning is expected, there's no regular titlebar there. We're aware of the Settings issue and will be looking at that for a future update if possible. It might have to get excluded, as it seems to be using their new Fluent graphics controls.
