This is a Work from Hellas = Greece.
Is dedicated to All people of Earth who support : the Hellenic = Greek History, Philoshophy, Civilization and the Greek people.

********

PLEASE READ THE INSTRUCTIONS OF THE 64 BIT of this page VERY CAREFULLY.
THE SYSTEM FILES OF YOUR SYSWOW64 FOLDER MUST BE REPLACED FROM THE 32 BIT FILES THAT I HAVE INCLUDED TO MY Macos X for Windows 7 - 32bit [link] FROM FOLDER '32 bit Dll files'
So 64bit users must download also my 32bit version of the theme.
THE REST SYSTEM FILES, in C:\Windows\System32 and in C:\Windows MUST REPLACED FROM THE FILES INCLUDED TO THIS PACK FROM FOLDER '64 bit Dll files'.


Mac OS X style system behaviour with not 3rd party program .

Macos X is a Mac OS X port for WIndows 7, made by idas = ZEUS osX. (Pavlos Pitselas).


Macos X for windows 7 is MADE IN GREECE (= Hellas).


Macos (1)word meaning : 'mecos'= length in ancient Athenian also Ionian language and in Byzantine and in nowdays Greek, and 'macos' in doric and aeolian ancient greek dialects and in nowdays tsaconian= spartan dialect that still speaken in some villages in southeastern Pelloponese[south Greece], where is my hometown, and also in Ancient Greek Macedonian and Aeolian Thessalian dialects.
On screenshot , down window there exist some of a portrait of Alexander the Great(=Alexandros) who unified all Hellenes=Greeks ie (Peloponisians , Thessalians , Macedonians, Athenians, Cretans etc ].

IN ancient and in nowdays Hellenic (=Greek) [Active CODE] language, every letter, and every word is a specific number, and it has a specific meaning.
ZEUS ( or DEUS or DIAS) is Master of immortal Gods in Hellenic (=Greek) Active CODE [arithmetic machine logic] language, and APPLE is the given gift from ZEUS .

So the name of the THEME choosen from Hellenic = GREEK language and civilization.

-------------------------------

Macos X IS not just a theme. With new code added to Windows system files , Windows becomes behaving like Mac OS X .

When forinstance we select a folder as 'icon', we have separate mouse over image for the folder and other image for the text.

When we select a folder as 'details' we can have stripes, and mouse over images like mac os X , blue hover and white text .

Main categories of visual styles: Transparent, Brushed, Gray.

Names and styles of Themes:
Dion,- 4 versions ---> transparent
Alexander, - 4 --> brushed
Leopard - 4 --> gray

in each style that has number I (FOR EXAMPLE : 24 Dion I ) --> no visible folderband, and no addressbar image, and a designed button at the corner of titlebar.

in each style that has number II (FOR EXAMPLE : 24 Dion II ) --> no visible folderband, BUT with addressbar image,and NO designed button at the corner of titlebar.

in each style that has number III (FOR EXAMPLE : 24 Dion III) --> Visible folderband, and with addressbar image in eand NO designed button at the corner of titlebar.

each style that has number IIII (FOR EXAMPLE : 24 Dion IIII ) --> no visible folderband, and no addressbar image, BUT IT HAS some pseudo buttons in the place of addressbar so to look like MAC Finder, though its only design, without fuctionality as also the designed button at the corner of titlebar.

Also i use The Ave's application [still beta] , CloseButtonChanger which makes the close,max,min buttons more close.

My work is based on the spirit of os X, and not a copy of it.

Many images are designed in a similar but not same way with original os X.

I use font bold style in many places that original os X use regular font style.

I made this project to work only to 96 dpi font size.

For this project i have spent thousands of hours, and perchaps it is first time in the history of Windows, that without any 3rd party programm or explorer replacement, we have a so much close to mac os X style approaching.

The theme will have some limitations in use, as i have not enough time to complete in the way i want, as i am too tired.
--------

MAIN LIMITATIONS AND CONDITIONS OF USING

1. Be sure that in Control Panel\Appearance and Personalization\Display the Smaller - 100% categorie is checked . if there is not, check Smaller - 100% and restart.
Also do not change font size (leave it 96 dpi font size).

2. do not change border padings.

3. in the new themes there is no any taskbar problem.

4. for close distance between close,min,max buttons Ave's application [still beta] , CloseButtonChanger needed.

5. for adding shadows effect around your Windows, needed the freeware controlable application YzShadow.

-4. I have visual styles with no looking Folderband [is the toolbar that it has Buttons Commands like 'Organise', 'System Properties' etc] and other with always appearing Folderband. For open the folderband to the styles that is not appeared, please have a look to my Auto-hide Folderband of win 7, [link] where is written SOLUTION FOR WINDOWS EXPLORER , MY COMPUTER WINDOW STYLE. / SOLUTION FOR WINDOWS EXPLORER , WHEN YOU HAVE DETAILS PANE AT THE TOP. etc

For starting with windows start up , go to control panel/clasic view/folder options then go to view and select show hidden files and folders. then go to C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup and add a shortcut of the leftsider or Yz Shadow

then go again go to control panel/clasic view/folder options then go to view and deselect show hidden files and folders.

(do the same for any other application, but only if you trust it, and does not automatically work with the start up of windows) [if you want also to uninstall an application , like leftsider and reinstall a new version of it, you have first go to "C:\Users\[enter your username here]\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\" and delete the folder called "leftsider" = delete the folder with the name of the application , in this case current "leftsider".]

ZEUSosX In reply to jondogg [2010-02-23 13:25:22 +0000 UTC]

its black to all .
before practising how to use the autohiding the folderband which i have given you the link in this deviant page ( number 5 of Tips) see how [link] in SOLUTION FOR WINDOWS EXPLORER , MY COMPUTER WINDOW STYLE. / SOLUTION FOR WINDOWS EXPLORER , WHEN YOU HAVE DETAILS PANE AT THE TOP. etc
you can easily for now do this:
select the Alexandros AF X ,or the Dion AF X , or the Leopard AF X themes.
both have continously opened the folderband so very easily you can select organize, layout, check/uncheck details pane.
i made those for people who have difficulties with using the autohide folderband of my other styles.
Folderband if u see in my topic reacts in different way in different explorer windows such as a library window, or to a library's pane.
So you have to practise as this system i made is different than the native microsoft. From the other i have given you alternative solutions.

ZEUSosX In reply to ??? [2010-02-23 07:47:59 +0000 UTC]

FOR the details pane to your screenshot i have answered to you: the most ease way if u are no exoerience how the autohiding folderband works is this i have written to you: select the Leopard AF X THEME.
down of the Address bar exist the folderband, there are command butons, select organise, Layout deselect DETAILS pane.
then select the theme u like Leopard X THEME. Now if you like to do direct to the theme u use you have to do this:
You need a mouse with left and right clik [with mighty mouse is difficult to make it].
Very gently you touch with your mouse the edge of the folderband.
Then folderband opens. Do not moove your mouse. Press right clik and dont leave your finger from the right button of the mouse. then drag your mouse with pressed the right button to the command button of the folderband that you want. Then without leaving the pressed right button of the mouse, you pressed the left button of the mouse once, then rapidly you leave the right button of the mouse, and press again the the left button of the mouse, and THATS IT. you can read all the behaviour of the system [liks for this mentioned here to this deviant art page Instructions] [link]

About taskbar also written to Instructions text of this Deviant art page:
...............
-4. The windows 7 system behaviour to 22 pixel (small icon) taskbar is unbelieveable not applicable!
That means that everytime you log in to your system, taskbar becomes bigger[than 22pixels], and you have manually do this:
right clik to taskbar, select Properties, Uncheck Use small icons, Resize your taskbar as possible small, then check Use small icons and that s it.
To my system[32 bit win 7 rtm] I do this, i set first small icons taskbar size on top of desktop, after i set before shut down, or log off etc the taskbar to the bottom , when i log in i set the taskbar to the top and works ok, though to people i gave for testing my work [they use 64 bit win 7 rtm] this last method i use, does not work!

..............

so i have my self find these solutions that work.
u must first uncheck the Small icons, taskbar becomes bigger, risize with the mouse as possible, then select small icons, ok?

i have written to Microsoft about but no answer [link]

please read carefull all my Deviant art page as many of u, asked things that already are written.

also about the text when selected as icons, this happens because you have selected 'use check boxes to select items'.
select with your mouse the text of the folder, not the folder and it will opened.

or if u dont need check boxes, go to control pane, folder options, uncheck 'use check boxes to select items'.
but if u want the 'use check boxes to select items' follow the method i have written and select the text on each folder.
This is normal because of the modifications i did in code. so its working.

thanks a lot for this amazing theme

i have a little question: if i want to make an existing theme i have compatible with the dll's (e.g. the stripes behind the items in list view) included in your theme, which parts need to be adjusted (and how do i make the taskbar small)
i should say that at the moment i'm using dion as the theme at the moment
i like almost everything about it, the only "problem" i have is, that i like the borders of the theme soft7 1.8 by ap-graphik with border-padding 2 and caption-buttons 18, and would like to have these borders and caption buttons with the rest of your theme, and here's the problem.
i don't know how to adjust either your style or his style so that it looks the way i want it to look. (the problem is mainly inside the stream folder, i guess)

-of course everything would be just for my own personal use-

[link]

first to say, at the moment i use your vs, because there are more points i like about it, than i like about the other vs

what i would like to change for myself is, i just want to use the window boarders (and the caption buttons) of the other vs
won't it be possible to use the .png inside the stream msstyle inside your msstyle? (just copy paste won't be of any use, the order of elements inside the .png is different)

The need to resize the taskbar on every restart keeps me away from this theme. It's the best Mac-like theme I aw for Win 7,wihs there was a way around this resize thing,even a larger taskbar,but not as large as the Win 7 one.

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

ZEUSosX In reply to SiCKtertainment [2010-02-21 12:09:31 +0000 UTC]

There is no need to resize every restart:
....
To my system I do this, i set first small icons taskbar size on top of desktop, after i set before shut down, or log off etc the taskbar to the bottom , when i log in i set the taskbar to the top.
...........
its not difficult, and better than to always resize.
if u use bigger taskbar then why not the big of windows? what i mean is that we use the small because we like the small.
if its not so good applicable , thats because of mirosoft's magic tricks.
--------

i am also annoying from that, but not found a solution in code or registry.
so i do that i described you, hope it works for you.

SmigaOne In reply to ??? [2010-02-21 04:54:37 +0000 UTC]

Another problem about the taskbar for me.
As you said, it changes from small to big after a reboot. But I can't drag it back to small. It's just not possible. I can drag it down and have a small taskbar, but not on top.

So...
Before reboot small on top = After reboot big on top, small on top is not possible, small on bottom is possible.

And before reboot on bottom = Big on bottom, small on bottom is not possible, small on top is possible.

Do I have to drag it to the bottom every time before I reboot if I want to have it small on top after the reboot?

ZEUSosX In reply to SmigaOne [2010-02-21 08:52:07 +0000 UTC]

yes that i do.

----------
otherwise u have manually do it.
for example if its big taskbar at top, right clik properties,Uncheck lock the taskbar, Uncheck Use small icons, now your taskbar is big but can be resized with your mouse, Resize your taskbar as possible small, then check Use small icons and that s it.

this is a windows 7 problem with thin taskbars.

I love your theme! It has so much to offer without the use of 3rd party software. Everything seems to work fine for me except some minor issues. Let me start by saying that I'm using the Dion A X theme on Windows 7 Ultimate x64. In windows explorer, PNG files (and some other file types) do NOT line up properly when View is set to Large Icons. This happens with different size files. Is this normal or can it be fixed so that the file names all line up? See my screenshot:
[link]

I also have another question...the white part of a window's content has outlines/border on the right and left sides but NOT on the top or bottom. Can this be fixed so that there are outlines on the top and bottom as well?
See my screenshot:
[link]

Everything else is Fantastic! You did a wonderful Job! Thanks again...

ZEUSosX In reply to Hire4Luv [2010-02-21 01:51:14 +0000 UTC]

1. about the png, yes its normal , from what i remember.

2. I can analyse you this for many days. You have right i have not put external borders. Why? Because i have setted internal borders . why ? because of the new construction of the windows 7 library pane. normaly it has no borders !!!!!! so microsoft leave the area all together, a huge white ocean. so i decided to divide it and also to set internal borders to the main window area bottom and top, and propertreehost area , the left size of the window [navigation pane] and i can tell you thousand things because of the construction.
i believe microsoft engineers in other parts on code or designing do exelent work and to other a mess and a not understandable what they like to make icon appear.
So if i have internal borders and add also external ones i would have 2 dark border lines because of that in a normal explorer window. i decided to have a good explorer window in designing than any other. thats why.[link]

i have no solution. on vista i could have 2 different color parallel border lines , on 7 no.

Thanks a lot for your hard work! Unfortunately, the pack has not worked on my computer. I am runnung Windows 7 Professional and had to reninstall twice due to problems with the shell32.dll file.
I have gotten errors with mpnotify.exe and explorer.exe not starting becuase shell32.dll is missing from your computer"

c. Copy ExplorerFrame.dll, imageres.dll, shell32.dll from this pack to C:\Windows\System32 and and explorer to C:\Windows .
[for the Alexandros and Dion Themes copy the ExplorerFrame.dll from the '1. buttons light blue HOVER ' folder, for the leopard copy the ExplorerFrame.dll from the '2. buttons gray HOVER' folder, of this pack,

and NOW please Download my 32 BIT version from [link] , open the foler 32 bit Dll files, copy and replace the files that existed to c:\windows\syswow64

I HAVE ADDED THIS to my Deviants Art page Instructions for the 64 bit theme.

Thanks a lot! Using the 32-bit files has ended the error messages. However, the icons haven't changed. After replacing all the dll files, I am still stuck with the Windows icons.

I have just noticed that using the 32bit files has made my Windows function like a 32bit version. Windows has become unable to recognize more than 4 GBs of memory.

The section att he top of a window that triggers the drop down sometimes causes the navigation pane text and window icons to flicker when the drop down is trying to open. Also that drop down isn't usable as it disappears as soon as you move your cursor from the screen area that triggers the drop down.

please read carefully the instructions above:

''... 5. I have visual styles with no looking Folderband [is the toolbar that it has Buttons Commands like 'Organise', 'System Properties' etc] and other with always appearing Folderband. For open the folderband to the styles that is not appeared, please have a look to my Auto-hide Folderband of win 7, [link] where is written SOLUTION FOR WINDOWS EXPLORER , MY COMPUTER WINDOW STYLE. / SOLUTION FOR WINDOWS EXPLORER , WHEN YOU HAVE DETAILS PANE AT THE TOP. etc

-------------------------

if you can not understood after this, use only my themes named tith AF X LIKE Alexandros AF X , they have open continious the folderband, but first try to understand how to control the folderband to the link i gave you.

very quiq i have to say to you: make right clik to your titlebar, at the top of your window, without leaving the right mouse pressed button, and draG IT TO the area u want or to the underline text in library pane you pressed the left button of the mouse once, then rapidly you leave the right button of the mouse, and press again the the left button of the mouse, and THATS IT.
[the method is the last one described to [link] ]

Now please writte how you repace system files to your 64 bit system and works.
As i have not 64 bit, i can not help people that asked me, so please describe how and what system files u replace and where ie C:\Windows ... also because i have to see if i must change something to 64bit instructions.
thank you.

Hy Zeus!

First of all, thanks for your theme. it seems so cool. Unfortunately i couldn't install it. I did everything just you wrote it but at the part when we have to overwrite the orignal system32 files, my windows says, that i can not do that, cause there is a nother program using it\them. I tried to do it every possible way, but I didn't manage. Any suggestion? Or any link where i can find the solution?

Thanx for your work again!

J
