Here are some screenshots to illustrate my issue. I can pick other fonts, they just don't work. If I apply the theme to WB, the fonts do not appear. Any fonts. They all display as default system fonts. To test, I altered every occurrence of a font entry to a non-system font (a TTF Fixedsys font displayed here). They will not display correctly, either in SKS or rendered in Win10 using WB. I've even looked in the text based config files for the theme in question to confirm t

Apparently Windows 10 does not want you to change fonts. I did find some info on how to hack a change to system fonts for Windows 10 however. Involved some registry changes..

Newb Question: Start Menu All Programs Mouseover Text Color? in Skinning WinCustomize Forums

I am finishing, cleaning up, and fine tuning a Windows 95/98 skin I am creating for WB10. I am unable to set the Mouseover text color for items in the All Programs section. The outer menu and other parts of the start menu appear to be behaving correctly to my settings so far. I'd like to set the text (as show below) to a white but it is not working. <img src="http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y299/codewar/Untitled-1_1.png" alt="" width="436" height="
