Reply to How do I get rid of Object bar? in Object Desktop WinCustomize Forums

You should be able to right-click the ObjectBar icon in your system tray, select General Options, then select Startup Options, uncheck Run ObjectBar automatically on startup, click OK. Then right-click the icon in the system tray again, select Unload ObjectBar.

There should be no one that has more benefits available to them than a Stardock customer. What you purchase with your Object Desktop subscription is just that: the software that comes with it, plus unlimited downloads here. The higher tier access is for people who directly support (by subscrib

Reply to SCRIPTS ALL GONE!!! in DesktopX WinCustomize Forums

think you might be right, XX, but then why does it load the 'default' script instead of just a blank script? Probably because the data saying there was a script is separate from the actual script data. Like when you press New Script, it flips a switch saying "This object has a script", and the

Reply to WB5: Visual Studio 6 Problem in WindowBlinds WinCustomize Forums

Simple enough to solve.. Just use VS .NET 2003 Simple for you perhaps. Unfortunately, in our work environment it's not always practical to scrap/rewrite/port all the code to keep up with Microsoft's latest semi-compatible upgrades. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/wc/smiles/Ew.gif" bor

WB5: Visual Studio 6 Problem in WindowBlinds WinCustomize Forums

I've just found what seems to be a problem with the WB beta 5 release (4.90g(b).033) - the dialog editor in Visual Studio 6 is hosed: the "drag border" doesn't show up around the dialog window, thus no ability to size the dialog. Prior to the beta release there was no problem. Tried using per-application settings - set to a different theme with no per-pixel stuff, set to title-bar only. The only thing that works is excluding

DX Requests in DesktopX Wishlist WinCustomize Forums

Thought I would start a DX feature request thread, since I have a few, and I'm sure others do also. 1. Access to Z-order settings from the script. Currently we're able to set OnTop for an object, but have no access to what Z-order group the object belongs to: Normal, Always On Top, or Desktop. 2. Access to an object's label from the script. Currently if you drag a file to a container object, there is no script access to the labe

That would be one straight in the bin advertisment. Even if you know the people that run companies don't actually give a hoot about the little guy, you don't actually come out and say that in public. Mr RiddickRom: It seems like all your points assume that the purpose of WinCustomize is as a money

Nope i havent - i am a visitor and i think its a good (although quite risky) idea Given the current situation that Brad and Stardock are looking at with WC, exactly how is it so risky? Brad has stated repeatedly that Stardock would be fine without WC, and as I understand the curr

Has anyone else noticed that the people who seem to disagree with Brad's plan of cutting back on Visitor access all seem to be visitors? And before someone takes issue with this statement, take the time to check all the previous posts in this thread. I'm not making any judgements, it's just an observation. I do find that it is useful to have som

If people aren't subscribing in large enough numbers now, you have to ask yourself what is the reason for this I really think it's pretty simple: the bulk of people are perfectly willing to take something for free if it's available. Since the downloads are there for free, and that is most likely what
