a few issues help needed
from
WinCustomize Forums
Howdy folks. Ok first posting on the help boards. Be gentle
.
I'm currently running desktopx pro 3. and have encountered a few issues and was hoping for some help.
First lemme say I don't script. I use the default desktop stuff.
My first issue is when making meters....cpu,memory,uptime, kb/s in and out etc etc.
The meters will work fine UNTIL I group them as soon as i group them one of the meters starts freaking out trying to be all of them at once by the looks of it. As soon as I delete the one everything is fine but if i try to remake it and group it with the others the same thing happens again. I'm not using images. Strictly text display. It seems I can make about 5 meters roughly anymore then that and they start wigging out.
Second. How does one make a group ummm inivisible? By that I mean.....lets use media player as an example. I have all the buttons set up they all work fine and they're grouped. How does one make the group invisible until needed. Basically how do I stop em from all showing up when I load up the theme. Mine all appear as soon as the theme is loaded no matter how I save the theme. I have the player set up with an object controller which works fine but as I said it always appears on theme loadup (same thing with the meters)
Third. I've had object controllers open all the objects that are available. Umm an example. I had tiggz dock installed as I was making meters and setting them up with an object controller. When I clicked the object controller it opened up tiggz visualization and media playlists objects and was only setup to open the meters.
Fourth and final. This is more a general question. The widgets created in desktopx 3.0 the ones that can be made as stand alones without needing desktopx installed. Is there any way to include these in a theme without having to manually load them up? I'm thinking specifically of the omni wallpaper changer ( i believe tiggz again the artist) I'd like to have it continually loaded up with my theme but I always have to do it manually which can be annoying. Anything that can be done about this?
So those are my major questions. As I said be gentle I don't script I just have fun. Thanks in advance for any input

) because I thought you didn't want a background to your player buttons, since you obviously didn't make one.
