No matter what I try i can't seem to get this to work. Windows Key + Tab has
no effect

The best I can achieve is Alt + Tab and the usual scrolling between
applications. Can anyone help?

Thanks

Paul
 
If you video card doesn't support Aero, you wont get Flip 3D effect.

That seems to be the only 3D effect you can get with Aero, anyway.
And it doesn't look very pretty either!
 
I think the alt-tab combination looks better and is faster.

Right click on the Sidebar and choose Properites. At the bottom of the page
click on the link, How do I customize Windows Sidebar?

All of the available options are explained in the help pane. I suspect that
transparency is global. You control it for windows and Sidebar alike from
Personalization with one setting.
 
MSFT (showcasing their trademark bullying amalgamated with quintissentiual
cowardice) tries to censor criticsm anonymously instead of announcing what
they find objectionable. If it's MSFT it wants to interfere with
learning--you can take that to the bank. The move toward fundamentalist
anti-science government in their home country ought to suit MSFT to a "T."

Sorry for the 5472 answer. The link brings up the exact same help page CH
gave you, so it doesn't matter.
 
We will find you.....

And so what? LOL--you into censorship or facts?

How about a big dose of evidence that public feedback has any impact
whatsoever instead of empty attaboys Colin? Why is the public MBC buried?

Just for grins, Chad, I tried to look at one of my submissions that I know I
had made public. One of the emails I received from the Connect team did say
that while I, a mere CPP lawn ornament had no access, there has been much
discussion about changing that.

I've found all your answers the highest quality, reflect an unsual facility
with MSFT sites and others, and many of them to be "drag to a folder
'keepers'."

I hope everyone understands that if you see a message on one of these
newsgroups with content or links you like you can drag the message and save
it. Same goes for links in general.

Mark--

That's interesting. I really don't understand why in the world they can't
make their chats public for Vista related topics and their Live Meetings.
If I were MSFT I'd welcome a huge attendance--it would be a leading
indicator of interest. The chats can host a lot of people--they try to
answer questions--and then they should publish them as a way of keeping as
many people current as possible. It's always worked for me more knowledge
of the features in Windows is better than less.

Also with the features that their large SQL servers and now cluster servers,
ect have (I don't have much experience with all the data base capabilities
that MSFT software has--but many of you do--I'd think that they would have a
very efficent way of classifying and sorting bugs.

So let's say I get a bug from Colin B. or Mark V. on a feature or a facet
call it what you want of Vista or Longhorn server or a suggestion. If they
are close enough, then I could fire the response so it copies to Colin and
Mark and whomever else's bug was classified in that category. I don't see
how hard that would be and I could have more detailed ideas if I understood
all the data base software that can be at your disposal if your MSFT.

It seems to me that "bugs submitted into the in box" could be sorted
quickly into categories and that the developers, PMS or team members who
look at them would be looking at a lot of bugs that are representative --and
once they make a response after trying to repro or whatever they think needs
to be done, they could broadcast out the result.

I also put on a couple of the blogs by the bug people that they should make
a list of the fixes they make, categorize them and publish it on a well know
bug site on http://www.microsoft.com and in that way they could keep people
up to speed on bugs posed, bugs fixed, bugs that will be fixed projected
toward some build in the future, and bugs that are deferred to Vista SP1 or
beyond or bugs that won't be changed or can't be changed (whatever category
Paul Donnelly and his extended team have made for them).

Nice links on that thread with you and Michael the other day Mark.

The more I think about it, how hard would it be to make a publicity blitz
showing the world how much effort they are going through to make the product
top-notch when it hits the market? Wouldn't they gain consumer confidence?
I am sure I am not the only one to think of it, but my goodness I think that
just in lost advertising they are totally missing the boat.

Mark
 
Indeed. As Chad pointed out the technology is there so it must come down
to the will of MS execs.. unless they just never thought of it. But it
may be they don't want to keep a running stream of bugs and fixes as
they think it would give too much away.
 
Thanks. :)
