    I'm testing 3.3.4 at present.
    I'm finding that the Header appears to be ghosted, like it's being drawn twice, once with BGInfo4X for windows and once with my Header.conf
    I've commented out DrawHeader from the immode.conf but the comment is being ignored and it's always being drawn. I've then changed the Drawheader to the same as my header file and removed the details from my header file.
    The Header now looks like it has a drop shadow.

    I'm running this using the BGInfo4x for windows shortcut, I'm noticing errors/comments at the beginning about mkgrp and also, every time the process reruns to regenerate the background the window closes, the same happens if you run "Reload Configuration"

    Yes, the HEADER by default is ghosted. Check this: http://sourceforge.net/p/bginfo4x/wiki/Documentation/#can-i-use-shadows

    Yes, the bginfo shorcuts opens the program and closes. This is normal. I will add the old shortcuts, to simplify ...

    Check the new release.

    I have #DRAW_HEADERFILE="-fill white -draw \"text -3,-3 ' BGINFO4X for Windows !'\""

    but it still apears!

    I´ve also deleted the line in Header file but it also still apears.

    Can you reload another wallpaper and then start bginfo4x?

    Edit BIN/CONF/DB.CONF and modify _DEBUGIM="ON"
    _DEBUGIM="ON"

    Can you upload the debug.log located in $TEMP/BGINFO4X?

    I´ve edited DB.CONF, but there is no TEMP folder or debug.log after i run ./BGINFO4X.sh

    You need to search for the location of your windows $TEMP folder.

    cmd -> echo %TEMP%

    Plase, add _DEBUGFT="ON" in the BIN/CONF/DB.CONF

    Attatch all the content TEMP folder, debug.log, ....

    Thanks.

    Hello, I see the problem. Once a variable has been defined, like DRAW_HEADERFILE="your text", .... you can't comment the variable with #. You must undefine with doble quotes like:

    DRAW_HEADERFILE=""

    Thanks for the info on the Variable, that makes sense
