XP SP2 WW 5.6.45 Although set to transparent, my tray icon background always comes up bright red everytime the system boots. I can exit, then restart using a desk icon and it is then correct.
It shouldn’t have any relevance but due to an exceptionally bright screen, I do have my background set to light grey. No other colors are affected, and I can reset background colors correctly, but I did meniton since it is something not ordinarily done.
Any ideas? Otherwise, there seems to be a lot to like in this new version.
If the “Blend edges of ClearType text…” box is checked in the “Tray Icon” tab of the Weather Watcher Options window, the tray icon background will be set to the color of the lower, right corner of your desktop. That is normally the color of your taskbar. However, I guess it would be possible for Weather Watcher to grab the desktop color if it somehow starts to load before the taskbar appears.
Thanks for the response, Mike. It worked! I don’t know exactly WHY it worked [my desktop color is certainly NOT red] but who cares?
