ZEUS os X HERMES for Vista by ~ZEUSosX



NEW KIND OF STREAM! (New *** updated 27 May 200

ZEUS os X HERMES is an experimental mac os x BRUSHED style visual style for windows Vista, in which its aero version based in a complete NEW kind of stream!

also circle style image 515 does not having nomore streched problems via changing code.

Scrol thumb horizontal and vertical are not also streched via changing code.

List view header has also be more to mac style changing also code via hex editing .

Please, use YzShadow with which you can control the values of shadows.
[ for working correct YzShadow on Vista, you have to set it on vista as compatible with windows xp, via right click on YzShadow properties/copatibilities/ run this program in compatibiity mode, select windows xp] download YzShadow

for left side min, max, close buttons( use please leftsider.)

For changing the visual style use style selector.

I do not allow any modifications of my work.

Made in H E L L A S (= Greece ).

Inspired by ZEUS.

VERY NICE!
Yet another fantastic piece of work!
As a sidenote...i think it might look better with the close/min/max buttons closer together

Thank you.

on basic version of th visual style they are close.

on aero the system uses the buttoms from a specific image png called stream and they are all together in close positions,having the red [close] one bigger than the others.
see my solution to this



ukintel has realeased a new kind of titlebar based on psycob's aerobister theme in which buttons are looking closer. but in action in my opinion they have alittle problem. if you press the midle one[maximized] and your mouse is on the side of the button exist near the next [close] button, then it is possible your window when mouse pressed not maximized but closed.
the work of adding code and images on that modification is genious, but in action has a little problem.

it is possible on next weeks, a new method better comes.[thou it is not easy]

[remember this is vista, and this is 2 years work , analysing code and position of image elements and changing code]

ZEUSosX latest mac os X spirit mstyle versions for windows vista., New width of vertical separator + internal width borders made by me.

3 kind of visual styles [on aero mode] : a brushed, a transparent and a leopard style.
Brushed and transparent have 9 pixel width vertical separator [[perchaps the only vista visual style making possible having this width, via changing code by me], and the leopard style having vertical separator = 1 pixels width [perchaps the only vista visual style making possible having this width, and having 0 pixel distance from Header item, via changing code by me]
main limitation on leopard style: because of only 1 pixel of vertical separator, for select it this 1 pixel for drag the separator right or left, must do this: setting the mouse on the 1 pixel vertical separator as the shape of the mouse pointer becomes like <--->, then movie it first steady and slowly a little to the vertical axis having always this shape <---> of the mouse pointer, and after u drag it to rirgt or left.

NEW VERSION mac style for windows vista by ZEUSosX

new aero and basic taskbar redesigned different than the style apple uses [but still under development], white start button in contrast with the dark apple uses, new tooltip, new baloon, new mouse over text colors redesigned, new pop up background , different text Font size in most parts of the mstyle and much more.


1.not found how the mouse over text color on the main white right area of a window will become from normal black to mouse ovr/pressed white . but i found how to be independent this mouse over/presed propertie from the shellstyle.dll and be independent from themstyle. also i made a shellstyle.dll who enables it for all of you, that you want to experiment.infact the text color takes its properties from windows color text propertie see and download it

2. not found how the aero close,min,max buttons coul be in closer distance.

so if anyone can help on those 2 problems please reffer it.

I have made about 30 experiments, but there ready about 2 compact color aero versions , and 1 transparent, and a second one transparent with shorter on pixel edges will become if i find time and my eys help me.


also dont know [before i do the final realese] if change the blue mouse over colors on taskbar and start menu darker blue for more contrast and also some other minor changes.
