Closed [BUG 3.30] menu and toolbar black under Win2k

Post by RomCenter »

...
Yes but the background of the button bar has the same problem too? If these toolbars have any alpha blending, transparencies or any similar options enabled by default (which are supported only by XP+), they may be the cause of this issue. Perhaps you could check the version of the underlying OS and disable such options in the button bar upon loading of Romcenter?

This is the right thing to do. I will disable all graphics features for win2k.

:( Nope. It's still the same...

As you may have noticed, the filter bar's background is not black. Is this another control perhaps? If not, what's the difference between this bar and the others?

It's the same type of bar.
I just look for some bar properties and remove the transparent backgroud.
I tried under win me, but rc won't start !

I will maybe install a win2k on a vm to test... in two weeks :P

Hi Eric

v3.31 looks like this as soon as it's loaded and RC's main window appears under Win2K SP4-u1

I fixed some things and I can see all menus and buttons now, but pictures still have black background.
I don't think I can go further. Win 9x and 2k don't like 32 bits icons. :toobad:
