@AWWade: The DF taskbar rendering has changed a bit in the last few betas to fix some DF bugs, and this may affect the way WB handles the skinning. I can't really do much about the way WB skins the DF taskbar though, sorry. :(


Well I would like to thank you for trying, Although I find it strange the taskbar is displayed fine if I have the icon and text but not if its just the icon, it is something I will get used to.

Thanks Again

Must learn to read the change logs.

I find myself checking them a couple of times each day. Jon usually updates the in-progress log as he fixes a bug or adds a feature, so I love knowing what's going to be coming out in the next beta release in a couple of days. ]]> RE: Second Monitor Taskbar Faded Out https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/second-monitor-taskbar-faded-out/?ID=16ebabf0-b92d-437d-bf70-64b802fbc769#13 Mon, 18 Jul 2011 16:25:57 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/second-monitor-taskbar-faded-out/?ID=16ebabf0-b92d-437d-bf70-64b802fbc769#13 DisplayFusion

Can you advise me how to switch back to icons and text on my second monitor?

The Blind in the screenshots is called Aztec and the link is: http://www.wincustomize.com/explore/windowblinds/7177/

Thanks for looking into this.

Here is two screenshots so you can see what I mean. I am using WindowBlinds but that has never been a problem before or if I have the icon and text showing.
