  • @vinod :
    what do you mean ?, i use Firefox and it shows the top border when maximized, but i recently discovered a bug that i am solving when you change a setting like skin or blur the maximized top border of most windows change wrongly it's position to up screen, and i used the shortcut lt+spacebar+r and the windows is restored normally with the four borders

    @cs
    this i can't solve, border skin passes the left mouse click on the top border to the windows top border causing the window to enter into moving state, so the window moving is handled normally by the OS, if AeroSnap doesn't detect windows moving then it must be using another way other than the normal window moving, this problem is with AeroSnap not with Border Skin

  • You'll be very unhappy to hear that one of the dlls included with the application (version 0.2.3) was found by Trend Micro's real-time scanning to be a trojan....

    ^^ Its a false positive as mentioned by Komalo. It'll be fixed in next version.

  • Seems theres a virus in this

  • VG

    ^^ Thats false positive. Don't worry about that. It has been mentioned by the developer.

  • BUG FOUND!

    After put it on, I had to disable everything because of extreme lag.The inside was lagging, but the clear outside border was ok...

    Even I disabled everything, there was still some lag, which was bad...

    The worst part is, that some sort of problem occoured when I wanted to shut down my computer!
    So I had to end the program... 1/5 stars for this

    Please fix the problem VG!
