Just another suggestion, a bit of a nitpicking one.... At the moment, when you mouseover the ModernMix 'icon' on upper right in full screen mode, the option to close or to switch between window/fullscreen is shown. I think it would be very handy if you just simply had the close option visible always, beside/above the current icon. Or even better, just get rid of current icon and the close and switch options permanently visible. I ask because

Yes, maximised, minimised, closed and appearing on the " recently opened apps bar " (!) and closed and not appearing on the 'recently opened apps bar'. As I said, the whole thing wouldn't matter if somebody bloody made a decent email app! The only ones with live tile capability, as far as I have found, are Yahoo Mail and Gmail Alerts. The Gmail Alerts one is not working as far as I can see,

[quote who="jasonquinn25" reply="4" id="3328270"] There are two processes in the task manger when ModernMix is running - 1. Under 'Apps' that bundles all current open apps and 2. Under 'background processes'.......[/quote] Just to say, the above looks like an insane long way of just closing the 'ModernMix' background process. I tried that this morning when other apps where running but mail live tile didn't work. Now as I play about

I've done a bit of playing about with it (the mail app anyway) and have it working in ModernMix mode (the live tile but not while the mail app is open). There are two processes in the task manger when ModernMix is running - 1. Under 'Apps' that bundles all current open apps and 2. Under 'background processes'. End both of them (unfortunately ending 1. closes all current apps) Confirm that your mail app tile is now working. Go

Hello I don't use the built-in mail app however I just rely on it's tile as an email notifier on the start screen and more so on the lock screen. Since installing, this tile doesn't 'work' weather I have the mail app opened on the desktop or closed (including appearing and not appearing as a recent app when pressing WIN+TAB). When I uninstall ModernMix the tile then works. If it has to be a fight between the mail app tile and ModernMix, of c

I was going to start the same topic. Yeah, congratulations Stardock and thank you! The $5 price tag on ModernMix is itself priceless. By installing this, I am now officially happy that I have got windows 8. I was getting tired and stopped using apps lately simply because of the hassle you go through to change over to them. Not knowing where the hell you are, if there's been a war/genocide on your desktop, what's opened, what's closed, even just what

Any luck with the idea about transparent tiles? I'm wondering if it's even possible. I made a transparent png in gimp, but a background tile color is applied on the tile. It would be nice as said above to have a transparent dummy tile so you can use them to lay out actual tiles better on start screen.
