WB 7 Tasbkar button bug.

Oh Neil...

Published on March 4, 2010 By vStyler In Object Desktop

When used with text showing... the taskbar buttons display incorrect text color sporadically.

Example, a skin like Corporate that has black selected \active buttons with white text... the fonts show incorrectly as dark instead of white over the button, rendering it almost invisible.

It doesnt happen on all buttons and it doesnt happen all the time, its rather intermittent, however, it makes skins with this type of button color\ text color config virtually unusable.

You may have to use a skin fror a while, open diff apps etc to get it to do it.. or... it may do it immediately after one apply.

It is also showing light text on states that should be dark.. like its completely confused.

Major bug imo.

I have verified it with other skinners on diff. systems and skins.

Cheers.

I noticed that too with Corporate. It seemed to only happen with my Firefox taskbar button.

I've not noticed that since I always use the 'Always combine, Hide Titles' option.

Is that like the 3rd item in your taskbar? It seems to only happen when you have more than 2 items. It's grabbing the normal state text color instead of the mousover color.

Ive had it happen on all taskbar items all accross the taskbar. and ive also had most states screw up in one form or fashion too.

Ive had selected buttons with wong text, mouse overs and default.

unfortunately, I can't seem to discern any ryhme or reason to it.

..as serious a bug as this is, some kind of response would be appreciated, it is rendering some 7 themes (and there ain't that many to begin with) completely unusable, while showing the text on taskbuttons.
