Ok, here is one, I've tried to use the Object.Parent but keep getting an error 'Object required "Object.Parent"'. Thought I might be doing something wrong so did a test with the example from the documents and got the same thing. v2.30.031

youve got to make sure that the parent also has script enabled, so just click on the properties for the parent, click new script then just close the script window and press ok on the properties one. that should do it

Yes, that was my problem with it, thanks.


How about using the Object.OnTop function? Ever get it to work?

Does anyone know how to edit an existing widget?

I would like to change which website the weather widget I have uses.

Sure.  Just import it into DesktopX and change it there.

I just went back to the last stable release of DX (2.4) but still some widgets do not work (like the drag and drop in the trash widgets of Tiggz). Is is a problem in the widgets (to be fixed by the author) or in DX2.4 ??

Two posts by me and one by Fairyy, but with comments from many others, including Tiggz re: the new version's incompatability with widgets. I'm still widgetless.

At least the developpers are aware of the problems.

EDIT : I have tried DX beta of 13/01/04.

The Trash can of GT3 is now working (it was broken in DX2.4). The DogmaX widgets are also now working.

I'm happy. Thx Stardock.

Still reporting (I do not know if it is of any interest ??)

I tried the currency converter of Martin and the widget does not work.
