PREVIEW PANE TO THE TOP

PREVIEW PANE TO THE TOP [for windows 7] download from [link]

how to: changing parameters and adding new ones to shell32.dll

after alot of searching and experimenting in code parameters, i made a 'condition' which works fine and windows system have the preview pane to the top.
i also inserted to preview pane the folderband.
because of this i must change also to some of my visual styles the code reffered to the height of folderband.[aero normal size works ok].

i have also made some more experimental styles [not finished yet] having details pane to the right, though i 'think' that to the initial bottom place we have a better preview of the details pane.
from the other preview pane looks great to the top.

in the picture we see:

1. preview of explorer
2. preview of a picture.
3. preview of text [this is the most important for me as we use all the width of the window so text is better readable.
4. full size preview !!! YESSSSS we can use all window area [except titlebar] for previewing an image or folder.

i will change the preview pane background to black, because of making compatible with aero.
my styles have internal borders but aero not so i will propably set to black the background image or perchaps some other solution will be used.
=======================
this is a unique work so please respect it.

i have not plant the date of realease, as i have to remake some parts of my visual styles/shellstyle.dll's

perchaps after those, as also i have personal life difficulties , i could realease an sp1 version windows7 of my Macos x Themes visual styles + system files modification work.
