Editing author name on Windowblind

from WinCustomize Forums

I am working on a fall blind, and I used one of my very old blinds (circa 2005!) as the template.  Well, I have the author name as my full given name, followed by my nick on that blind.  I tried changing it in SKS...it changes on the property sheet, but not on the preview in the Windowblinds config window.  How do I do this with SKS 7?  I knew how to do it in SKS 5 by editing the SKS ini file.  But, I am a loss this time.

Anyone have any ideas how to do this? :S

That didn't change a thing!  Dang.....thanks for trying. 

Maybe someone else will come up with another idea.

If you have changed the skin details in sks and saved it you could try this: Make a fresh .wba from it, delete the skin from your computer, and reinstall it.

Duh!  If I had half a brain, I would be dangerous!  When I first edited the properties sheet, I was trying to do it with the substyle that was open in SKS, not the main blind!  Last nite, a light bulb went off in my head...and I tried it again with the main blind (the .uis one, not the .sss one), and Voila!  It worked.

So thanks...your fix was right on the money! |-)
