Reply to Grouping Multiple Objects in DesktopX WinCustomize Forums

Let me see if I understand you correctly. You have two objects that are grouped, and both have mouse over states. You want object2 (the larger one?) on top of object1. You want both of the objects to resize when you mouse over object2? SirSmiley's script should do the trick, I think. Or are you trying to activate the mouse over state of both objects when you mouse over object2? And your mouse over states have the larger images? I don't know of any tuts that addre

Is this the missing object and its child objects?: [img]http://i135.photobucket.com/albums/q135/TFphoto2006/WC/viennahelp1.png[/img] If only all of those are missing I might have a different solution than starting over. Load the original version of the theme and select all of the objects I've selected in the image. Export them as a packaged object (make sure 'Selected only' is checked and not 'Selected and related'.) Then load your modified theme and import the packaged object.

I'm not getting that error but in DX Builder, if you get an error in the script, right-click on the object that's causing the error (the more button object) and select edit script. If you do that you'll see that "line 4" referred to in your error was trying to set the visibilty of the "weather_back" object. Now, the only reason why the error would say "object required" is if the object was deleted or was renamed. Now you have to see if the "weather_back" object still exists. R-click on

Reply to Weather widget does not work in ObjectDock WinCustomize Forums

Supplying the name of the widget you are having problems with will usually yield more informative and speedy responses. Of the weather widgets I have used you can put a location name or a zip code. Have you tried a zip code?

[quote]Quentin94....you are AWESOME![/quote] I concur. I usually try to position/size everything based on system dimensions as milksama mentioned but that doesn't cover walls. It's all up to the artist. On the user's end it is most important to not be afraid of DX Builder mode. Switch over, mill around, check out object properties, tweak, get used to it. If you mess up you can always load the original theme and start

Reply to My daily visit to the forums. in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

I go for the recent posts list. I scan for anything DX related (which isn't a whole lot) and then move onto threads that sound interesting or funny. I don't have enough time to read all of the posts but I reckon I get around to most of them in a day or 2 (which, of course, by then there are dozens more). I don't think I leave alot of replies; mostly when an opinion is asked asked for or when I feel I have something more to offer. Overall, I like to just read what everyone else has to say and the

I'm with Secret and Quentin; a mix of all of the above. Chat it up with folks around the office, find someone who's working on something interesting and watch them for a while, do a little Q&A, live demo once a week, and then finish off with OFFICE PRANKS!! (jk with the last one )

Reply to What are you "working" on? in Community WinCustomize Forums

Xiandi: I think maybe just clearing (erase) the bottom half of the gradients should do it. You'll notice in the taskbars and titlebars of alot of the wbs on this page, how the gloss shine has a distinct cut off. Easiest way I do it is to draw the gradient, use the selection tool to select the bottom portion and clear. But then, I'm no Master artist. I use PS7: [img]http://i135.photobucket.com/albums/q135/TFphoto2006/WC/gradient.png[/img]
