Wow, I didn't even see that update. Will check it out. Edit: works on Vista. I think Doc might be right, Vad.

I'm on Vista, Philly, and Tinted weather works for me. You mean running/extracting from the zip gives you an error?

Please consider a proper dialog window for adding custom files. The one we have now is entirely cumbersome, counterintuitive, and unnatural. It's too small, too tedious to navigate, and cannot add multiple files at once.

Reply to Silica Weather Widget in DesktopX WinCustomize Forums

Yes, the silica weather widget that comes with DX no longer works due to a change with the weather service provider. Stardock has said they will remove or replace silica...I can't speculate on when. See the DX widget galleries for new, working weather widgets. See the following threads for more info, if you haven't already: https://forums.wincustomize.com/358892 <a href="https://forums.wincustomize.com/358595

Reply to new menu object/script in DesktopX WinCustomize Forums

Ah. Well, I have yet to find any working script that can extract the icons of files/programs, due to the way icons are stored. Only way I know how is through drag and drop. It is possible to get the content of a folder then create (clone) shortcut text objects for each item (did this for my Dirty NrG theme start menu.) If you still want icons you could, alternatively, use FileSystemObject to identify the file types of each item in the folder then assign your own custom

Reply to new menu object/script in DesktopX WinCustomize Forums

Do you mean a shortcut to a folder that opens as a pop up menu and lists the contents of the folder? You can set that in shortcut properties by checking Open As Popup Menu.

For tone's sake, I'd pare back some of the exclamation marks and all caps (this is still a good opportunity for exposure), but the content of the email seems just right to me.

Reply to Well Known Site Ripping Our Work!!! in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Sounds like an odd way of getting new members/authors to participate on their site, but they don't look nefarious. You might consider contacting them on having your WC page linked instead. Do they make you a member automatically? Can you login and change anything?

@Anakey It's around 40%. A few more backend stuff to do, like webcams, making sure everything works, etc, and then it's on to applying the info to the graphics interface. Since WU gives local time, we should be able to implement nighttime icons.

Seems incomplete without the systray. Anywho, WPF sounds like a great opportunity for DX to do even more amazing things. Can't wait! *is happy now* [e digicons]|-)[/e]
