| | UI elements worse in newer builds? I only just noticed this, take a look at the following picture. http://www.neowin.net/forum/uploads/...1143634675.png On the left is the close/minimise UI icons from recent builds, and the one on the right is an older build. They used to look really lush, and had the outside glow stuff, now they are just horrible, non glassy, and faded out. In the official UX guidelines I think they have a massive scaled picture of the old style icons, too. Whats going on! Thanks. |

| | Re: UI elements worse in newer builds? Well, there's a possibility that they have the drivers, the hardware but not the actual PixelShading software... but trust me, on the latest build, the Glass effects are just as good (if not better) as they ever were.

| | RE: UI elements worse in newer builds? they appear identical to me... one is on a dark background, one is on a blue background.. keep in mind the buttons are semi-transparent... and will look much more radiant on a bright blue background "Tom Brickman" wrote: > I only just noticed this, take a look at the following picture. > > http://www.neowin.net/forum/uploads/...1143634675.png > > On the left is the close/minimise UI icons from recent builds, and the one > on the right is an older build. > > They used to look really lush, and had the outside glow stuff, now they are > just horrible, non glassy, and faded out.
