"Computers are useless, they can only give you answers." Pablo Piccaso
a partial list of what they are
Published on May 27, 2008 By SKoriginals In WindowBlinds

ok.. so i just recently noticed the 'Edit Vista Part Colours' in SKS6 under the 'Change Skin Colours' and though this (recently?) added feature is already proving (to me at least) pretty cool, its not actually 'labled' what each color is for.. just the RGB of the color.

So, I started a list of what the colors are and where they apply. However this is only a partial list as I could not determine what some of them actually changed.

If you can figure out what the missing colors (the light gray italiced numbers) are then by all means fill it in, I'll check back periodically on this thread to 'complete' the list as more items are found out as to what they actually pertain to... so... here is the list as of 8-13-08

I noticed that once you change one entry's color in a section the descriptions disappear for all the entries, Only way to fix seems to be clicking revert to defaults.

Same problem when changing Vista Fonts.
