Announcing Bluesky Experience Shell Build 13

 Hey there! Today, we comeback with a brand-new Bluesky Experience Shell build, Build 13! In this build, we've done many MAJOR changes to improve your experience, such as:

  • We drastically changed the animation engine. Now, Battery, Date and Time panel, and Notification panel will render much more smoothly.
  • We revamped the Taskbar and Menu Panel mechanism to fix a bug where Menu Panel won't show while using apps on full screen. As part of this change, some UI aspects are redesigned to comply the new mechanism.
  • We fixed a bug that causes desktop components (command box, battery and time label, etc.) went missing on a first use.
  • We added 16 new wallpapers for you to try. You can find it on Settings > Personalize > Wallpaper > Explore more.
  • We removed an option to maximize on Calculator app.
  • We revamped the Widgets system and introduced new version of "Digital Clock" widget that has better arrangement and rounded corners. In next builds, you'll be able to customize the widget!
  • We fixed some broken Dark Mode implementation on earlier builds.
  • Now, a soothing music will play during Welcome screen.
  • We added ability to backup and restore your current configuration into a .reg file. It is available on Welcome screen and Settings > User.
  • You can now get suggestion for a strong password while setting up Bluesky Experience Shell for the first time.
  • We added two links on About page in Settings app to help you assist with Bluesky Experience Shell. As part of this change, the Send Feedback option on tight-click-Menu button is removed.
  • Overall codebase improvement.
Screenshots:













Known issues :
  • The shell will start much longer than usual in certain scenarios.
  • The tooltip for Battery and Time in taskbar is still using the old animation mechanism, so it will look glitched.
  • As part of new Taskbar mechanism, the taskbar transparency is unavailable at the moment.
  • The taskbar will always show even in Login screen and Welcome screen although it's unusable.
  • The RAM Bar Widget is removed due to new Widget system that hasn't support it.
  • The shell will utilize Segoe UI if user don't have Segoe UI Variable font installed.
  • The new Personalization page may flicker while using Dark mode.
  • The title bar on Bluesky Experience Lab app will glitch if "Use accent colors on title bar" is activated.
