Window construction kit from JimS looks really cool but does it work with AMS7.5? I really need to add a custom window to my application. Thanks...in advance to anyone that might help...

To the best of my knowledge, it would work with any version of AMS from v5 on.

Isn't it just a bunch of images?

It looks a fine app/plugin, but in the site does't explain if works or not with all recent versions of AMS. I really need to know if it does cause I want a custom window and that my app to be movable and resizable.
If anyone has any intel, please reply. Thanks

I doubt it would be resizable because custom window masks are a pain to resize. You'd have to do custom coding for a resizable window mask.

I meant replacing the standard xp/vista window border with a custom one, in order to make the app resizable.

Well you can't really make the window resizable if you use a image mask.

The skin plugin is really awsome, but has a few glitches, specially when maximize the app, doesn't cover the all screen, but it really is a cool plugin.
Does anyone hear anything about the window construction kit, or even JimS. I tried to reach him by mail and pm but got no answer. Thanks
