Okay, this one's a quickie. DX already has a plugin to display the date or time. Just go to object Properties > Genereal > Additional Abilities and click ‘add’. You’ll be presented with this(depending on which version of DX you have): You can choose from a display of clock hands (Analog clock 2)

Nice thread. Two things: A new version of my rss reader. This one with add/delete rss, fast forward, rewind, play, change color, font stylings etc. And a todo list. Yeah, I know there are already quite a few out there but I wanted to learn to make one. Once finished it should have a daily list(on top), a weekly list that cha

You're welcome, dreamdesign3d. Keep at it, we've all been there. Wasn't so long ago when I couldn't understand anything in DX, myself. Be sure to check out w3schools.com for more VBScript information. You can start here at: VBScript Variables and keep going. EDIT: I'll che

I can't seem to replicate the problem you're referring to on the 1st script. I set the visibilty of all the objects to 'no' so that they were hidden. Then I inserted the script and it worked. Make sure your "main" object type is set to 'layer' and not 'object controller'. In your other objects, go to Properties > Relation > Popup and make sure it's set to 'static'. Any other settings would interfere with the script. On the 2nd script I would recommend that you change the names to

Wow, that's a great script Vad_M. I never knew there was a 'color' option in the frm.preferences type. Looks like it's going great DA. Keep up the good work. BTW: how's that logo contest going? I whipped these out the other day and thought I might as well show 'em to you. <img src="http:/

Hmm, I think I remember at one time there was an option to not have the objects move as one. There are other options besides grouping: This script would go in the controller Sub Object_OnLbuttonUp(x,y,dragged) If Not dragged Then 'Identify if objects are already hidden or showing Select Case Desktopx.Object("1").visible Case True showhide= False Case False showhide= True End Select 'Set objects visibility Deskto

[Originally posted at WinCustomize DesktopX forums] I know what you’re thinking: "Um, sViz, there’s actually a plug in for this." That's what I thought too, but it only works for my system time. The point of this tutorial is to make an analog clock that you can set ahead or behind of your system time. This tutorial is based on my ATW! Glob

Thanks for the kick start. I always knew the pen tool was one of the more powerful tools on PS but like Island Dog, I'd steered clear of it because I had no idea how to use it. After reading this tutorial I'm ready to get going! Thank you SK.

Right here on WinCustomize. When you go to 'forums' on the left hand side it used to be listed under 'OS Customization'. Like in the link you gave, on the right hand side it's not listed under 'OS Customization' there either. I see customization software, object dock, vista customization, windows blinds, but no Desktop X? I don't know I just found it odd that it's suddenly not there anymore.
