Hi guys Here i present to you: BasicThemer3. To quote from README.MD: Mostly just basicthemer2 but applies instantly to windows without the need for them to be in focus first. This is achieved by calling DwmSetWindowAttribute every millisecond for every open window, as opposed to BasicThemer2 which only calls it once when the window is in focus. github.com/arukateru/BasicThemer3 |

Unfortunately, it seems that due to the fact that I have a system in a language other than English (in Polish), I cannot use the program. View AttachmentHi, the guy who wrote most of the program is Korean. My system is not in Korean but I had no problems, I am not sure why. Here is this file: icedrive.net/s/Fuz7bRyiSv6BPtCYhbWjPkfwRxAwPut it in sysWOW64 |

Why is there no source code available?

Don't wanna sound annoying with dumb requests but...could you add an option to force basic/classic windows minimize/maximize animations? The ones where only the caption bar slides down/up instead of the entire window. No one's ever done that, this could be it! Basically this the ONLY thing that's missing from the entire classic theme/basic theme scene.

Basically this the ONLY thing that's missing from the entire classic theme/basic theme scene. it's not annoying or a dumb request im pretty sure that's impossible tho Has to be possible, since the talented people even got the entire classic theme to work through a batch script and WITH dwm enabled... I'd try it but I don't even know where to start when it comes to classic theme :/ All I got so far was to get windows vista and 7 minimize/maximize animations (from aero) to work on 8.1 and Technical Preview build 9883, that was msstyles related. When you disable DWM the classic/basic animations are triggered, so there has to be something else needed to return false to get them to show always/with dwm enabled. Perhaps something like the method to get old file operation dialogue animations? (The IDA method, that has to do with forcing a boolean on Shell32 to always return false), or something even ''easier'' such as something else added to that classic theme batch script? Either way...this tool seems like with the proper code added to it, could also do the job... |

Why is there no source code available? BasicThemer2 was licensed under the MIT license. With the MIT License you can pretty much do almost anything you want with the source code except removing the copyright notes. So, making it closed source is legal. I still think it is pretty shady to do tho. |
