Aero
Basic
Huh? I'm using AeroTheEternalPessimist wrote:

No, you're not, it looks jack all like that you're on the basic theme, which is default in everything up to Home Premium (never installed Ultimate so can't say that's the same, probably is knowing MS).kylef wrote:

If it were Aero you'd be able to see though your window borders without some oddball peice of software.
Doesn't look like it in that screenie, looked the same transparency as the rest of the windowkylef wrote:

I guess they are about the same level, but I could see through the borders even before I found this app ... anyway, what is really annoying me is a blue pixel outline (no idea what it is) around most windows which I just can't seem to get rid of. I have managed to faint it down a bit but still:TheEternalPessimist wrote:

Yeh that's a bit weird, I can't remember seeing that on my brothers PC.kylef wrote:

I'm normally switching to other windows to see what is in them but now I can look through and see, which can be really handy. Overall, I'm thoroughly impressed and those who aren't interested in transparency ... well this would just be another boring programDesertFox- wrote:
You described it as "handy" though in the first post, kyle. I can't see how it is anything but a purely aesthetic application.
Can you adjust the level easily and retain window settings? If so, can you get it even if you use an ATi chipset? If so, link me!TheEternalPessimist wrote:
Reason I like nView's transparency more is simply because it's off until you want it, you just click and hold the button down and the window goes transparent, I use it for referencing documents I'm working from without having to minimise the one I'm typing in.
It's good for people like me who have amazingly hot women that you can fap too as your background.Dauntless wrote:

I don't get why you need to see through things...
You can adjust the ammount of transparency, beyond that it just applies itself to whatever window you click on.kylef wrote:
