Tutorial: Vista Aero Glass new window background

[blackadm]

Okay, this is awesome. Works dynamically.

Now, what I want to know is how you made that peekaboo screen that says nAesthetic.

@blackadm I didn't make it myself I got it from here: nukeation net/CategoryView aspx?category=Aesthetics

Go to "How to use Aero Glass in your WPF applications" to see the article.

@derTmann88 I actually stumbled across this last night. Unfortunately, I do not know where to begin with WPF. I'm actually just starting vb. Is there some WPF app I paste the code into or can I just paste it into notepad and save as .wpf? I guess I'll have to learn and find out. Thanks.

is it possible to just clear out the background totally?..(i kinda like the idea of having a "true" glass theme)

[derTmann88]

@Firemarok I think if you just delete the part of the 850.png instead of putting an image there the background should be cleared out.

[Firemarok]

@derTmann88 hmm nope..apparently just makes the theme unusable..oh well ill figure it out

does this work on win 7? i cant do it or it doesnt work

[derTmann88]

@Minzzzi It should also work in Windows 7 but I guess the image is somewhere else.

[Minzzzi]

@derTmann88 mm it says u need trustinstaller plaplapla ;D and the file name is 971 and i tried 850 also 

[derTmann88]

@Minzzzi If you need TrustedInstaller you have to take ownership of the msstyles file.

Just search the net for "windows 7 take ownership".

i should ins\ult my self cause i thoguht it was to enable aero in basic lol

[derTmann88]

sorry, it's just to change the background. i think it should work with the Aero theme in Basic without Glass, though.

[dragonxd32]

well my pc came with aero but no glass =(
