Classic Shell: Forum

Hi,
i'm running Windows Server 2012 R2, i installed the last existing group policy template (from classic shell 4.2.4) and i noticed that when i try to save the preference for the "Menu glass color" (Computer Configuration) item withing the Group policy management console it does not get both OK and Apply buttons (view screenshot)

I don't understand - I can see the OK and Apply button in your screenshot.
BTW, if the state is "Locked to default" then the actual value you enter is not used.

It doesn't matter what i select in the "State" field, when i click on OK or on APPLY the windows stays open and the settings does not get passed to the main GP management panel
Sorry my english is not very good..


PS: i'd like to thank you for your amazing work

Oh it seems the GPEditor does not accept the changes if any value is entered for the menu glass color. When that text box is empty, OK and Apply become operational once again. Thanks for reporting this bug.

You must enter a number. Looks like the editor only accepts decimal numbers. Use the calculator to convert the value from hex to decimal.

Then that should be mentioned in the Group Policy template setting that it accepts only decimals and that the Windows Calculator's programmer mode can be used to convert the hex value of the color to decimals. For example, 4AC3F6 in hex=4899830 in decimals.
