I've been using gradients on wallpaper on both WinXP and Windows 7 happily for quite some time. The colors blend very nicely and you can't see the changes.
On Windows 8, if I set gradient changes on the wallpaper you can see great big bands rather than a smooth color transition. I see this on several Win 8 machines so it is not specific to the machines and the monitors are 1920 x 1200 so quite capable of displaying a nice color transition. Same monitors with DF on Windows 7 look fine with smooth color transitions.
Why ? that is the question ? why is DF displaying so poorly with Windows 8 ?

I will do this tomorrow when I have both at my fingertips. I'm guessing these are config files ? I'd be surprised if they are different as I am telling DF the same thing on both but what it displays is much different.
Those files will actually be the wallpaper image files that DisplayFusion generates. I just want to see if it's an issue with how DisplayFusion is generating the image, or how Windows is reading the image when it sets it as the wallpaper.

I think now that you have me comparing them that they are both poor.
