Off White System [Classic skin] Works on CSM version 4.3.0

It's a system looking menu.
I copied the light grey colors from Windows 10 Explorer, Edge, & an appy.

If you see a purple, blue, or green tint, it is color shift in your Lcd monitor.
The only colored part of menu, is aqua blue new programs selector.
This menu has no glass color, no Metro color, no blur transparency, and no gradients.
It could be called, I guess, Flat Vanilla? or Vanilla Minilla Godzilla :)

...and to think I once joked that Classic Shell was basically an insane overgrown context menu... :lol:

You got that right. :lol:
You think I should rename it Context Look Start menu?

It didn't begin that way. Four of the greys are from non active Calculator app.
I read somewhere Win10 has at least eight different context menus.
Maybe nine, counting larger one in Edge.
Can roughly duplicate that Edge one, by increasing DPI in CSM settings.
I was going to use the metro arrows, but noticed Win 10 still uses regular arrows in the system,
albeit small ones. Ivo makes it so the regular arrows resize auto with dpi.
If it was chevrons, need for three sizes of bitmaps, and a 125% option setting put in.
Nah. I think I'll leave the crazy menu name, the way it is.

Next skin name White on White.

thanks fonpaolo :lol:

Off-White Round Float [Opaque Classic 1,2 skin styles]

100%/96dpi,125%/120dpi,150%/144dpi display sizes
For small icons on the 1st column & large icons on the 2nd column option to work correctly,
it's better to use CSM version 4.3.0


Similar "context menu" start menu skin.
Converted it to floating with thicker border frames, round menu corners,
small 360-degree shadow, and a very faint blue tint in some areas.
On 3 monitors, 1 shows the blue tint, the other 2 just look dull grey.

Off-White Round Float Frameless [Opaque Classic 1,2 skin styles]

Another experiment with the same skin, (I was too lazy to combine them into one).
Now simpler look without the border frames at sides and bottom.

If you want to dock the floating menu back to the taskbar, use the settings in picture.
I believe the extra settings got added in Open-Shell 4.4.170

Dark Round Opaque Float

Display sizes 100%/96dpi,125%/120dpi,150%/144dpi


I Converted the "Off-White Round Float Frameless" Classic style skin to a dark version.
I then converted that to a plain cookie-cutter(without the top bar) 7 style skin.

The switcheroo:

If you want the grey selectors a bit brighter/darker, or even a different color,
check the option boxes for "Switch selector and new programs selector colors"
and "Custom new programs color". Then use the color picker.

Any new programs selector color will now be grey.
The regular selectors will now have your preferred color.
