Thanks for the replies everyone! Alright... but where is it, in progress Still a WIP, soon to be in beta testing mode. I enjoy just playing around with DX . Its a fun way to be creative even if you have no scripting knowledge like me Yeah, that's what I love about it. Whether you're a hard core coder or just like making cool things, it's pretty versatile and is leaps and bounds easier to learn than many other programs. [quote who=

@Cerebro, I DLed the 'fancy second hand.' It's pretty clever. I love the concept. Are you going to make a theme out of it or just components? Supes, no the game is online. This is just a handy utility for avid players.

If this is internet content (flash, gif, etc), then I don't see any other way to display it other than with the web browser. If it's an image online (png, jpg, etc) you can actually use the url as the object's image. For instance the sun emoticon in DrJ's post. I could r-click, get the url, and use that as my object's image.

Thanks gang! And Cyn, I'm always available by PM or email if ya need any help. [quote] It has been a long time since there has been a major update to DX. Hopefully with the renewed interest Stardock will take notice and give us a major update. [/quote] I've no doubt the good people at Stardock are hard at work on a lot of things, but...here's hoping DX gets bumped up the proverbial priority list.[e digicons]:thumbsup:[/e] [quote]Just the thing for us DX

All right, so I've done everything I can think of including setting the object's z-order (in the relation tab) to always on top, and coding it to move ontop, and coding it to set focus. It works fine in builder mode, but when it's gadgetized, bupkus. Here's a simpler version of what I'm doing. Stick it in an object, gadgetize it and tell me if it works for you. [code="vbscript"] 'Called when the script is executed Sub Object_OnScriptEnter Object

It looks like you have a function (StripHTML) to remove the tags. What's that look like? Also, are you modifying an existing widget? If so, which one? For what it's worth, here's the function I use to remove all html tags. Function removeXstuff(stuff) 'Remove everything between angle brackets from the extracted info xstuffL = Instr(1, stuff, " While xstuffL <> 0 xstuffR = Instr(xstuffL, stuff

There shouldn't be a wall loaded with DX. That could be from the last theme you used. If you're trying to get rid of it completely, go to the DX Settings window (seen in your screenshot). Then go to the Desktop tab, click on the 'wallpaper' button. Uncheck 'background image' if it's checked, click the 'none' button. Close then apply.

Okay, so it was all smooth sailing until I had a friend test out a gadget; then things got complicated. Simple Script: [code="vbscript"] Sub Object_OnScriptEnter Set objExplorer = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application") objExplorer.Navigate "about:blank" objExplorer.ToolBar = 0 objExplorer.StatusBar = 1 objExplorer.Width = 300 objExplorer.Height = 150 objExplorer.Left = 0 objEx

Glad the start circle's working now. If the error is for the media player then the missing object could only be either "media_clipname" or "media_clipmask" R-click on the DXBuilder icon > List Objects. See if those two are listed. If one or the other are missing, then they must've been inadvertently deleted. You'll have to redownload the theme but it's in moderation now.

DrJ, I just got a widescreen monitor (1680x1050, 16:10) and the latest version repositioned fine. I'm not sure why that it isn't working for you like it should. All I can suggest is to open up in DXBuilder > r-click on each, make sure they are set to child object of "start_circle". Ctrl+click and drag them to position if need be, then save. Keep me posted.
