VistaGlazz
This is app is extremely simple, but performs an essential and possibly
complicated task for Windows Vista customizers. It patches several DLLs
that control Vista's appearance so that users can alter Vista to their
liking. It's also freeware, making it a viable workaround for those who
want to tweak Vista but don't want to pay for it. It also changes Aero
so that it stays in effect on maximized screens.
There's
not much else to the program. It absolutely will not work with Vista
Service Pack 1 Release Candidates. If you install Vista Glazz before
removing the SP1 RC, simply uninstall the app and then SP1, and then
reinstall the program. The interface is basic, there are no skins
provided, and the EULA gives off the vague stench of unfounded fear.
Nevertheless,
if you're looking for a simple solution to a potential nightmare, Vista
Glazz may be the first step you'll need to take to pretty up Vista just
the way you want.
Since
then World of Warcraft and Crysis are no longer the sole users of your
videocard. The new Aero interface relies on your GPU for a new look with
customizable colors and transparency.
Unfortunatly
as in Windows XP, custom styles are not supported by the system.
www.muhammadniaz.blogspot.com Programs like WindowBlinds offer a
workaround but degrade performance. VistaGlazz provides a solution.
Transparency stays when maximized
If
your videocard is DirectX9 certified and Windows Aero is activated
you’ll notice the new transparency look. Normally in Windows Vista, the
transparency only lasts until you maximize a window. VistaGlazz ensures
transparency, even when your windows are maximized.
Custom visual styles
The
new Desktop Windows Manager in Windows Vista only allows visual styles
created by Microsoft. Creative minds on sites like DeviantArt create
cursors, icons, wallpapers and themes. After using VistaGlazz you can
now use custom styles as well.
