Ok, first of all, i know there has been quite a lot of work done on windowblinds and deskscapes, however i was wondering if they had been any progress as yet on some of the Aplications that were talked about over the winter when OD10 was released things like a right click replacement, a new version of windowfx that was supposed to take some of the new graphic enhancements of 7 back to vista and xp and rebuilding Desktop x. I know that i am probably going to be shot down in flames for saying t

thing is though, would you really want to be constantly looking at e-mails and other work related stuff all the time? as has been said when a laptop is off, its off with something that is connected permanently such as a smartphone or an i pad there may come a time where there is always something that has to be done and free time goes out the window
Even though i have only made 1 dx widget, it gave me hours of fun designing it and making sure all the graphics worked right, that the scripts for visibility etc worked. I wanted to do something different, think out of the box and thats what i did. Its so much easier then doing a blind, and is versatile in its features other then a wb which is just basically a background. I used to use the weather widget a lot before the problems, now i tend not to as its less accurate. It can still be used a
what tweaks eactly did the update do? still looks teh same to me, still limited to the set colours for trails and mouse clicks still havin to apply twice on all OS's
also try using Ccleaner to sort out the registry
its the same options you can find in the normal cp, just that this way you can get to them easier
there has been problems with cupons for at least a year, if not before then. I did ask about paypal in the 24 hour impulses thread though i don't think it was answered. I think the only alternative that stardock say is to send a cheque though that might turn out fiddley
the beta is worse then the old version though
if you can get it installed, try right clicking the executable and selecting properties >compatability and set it to run in compatability mode for windows vista, i have used this a few times to run software in 7 that aren't updated to work eg Tune up utilities 2009
Will all these deals be based off cupon codes? If that is the case then can stardock please do something to make them go ok with paypal as that is the method that i use to purchase stuff from impulse
[quote who="Zubaz" reply="37" id="2439923"] Sidebar gadget export have been removed (since MS has dropped the sidebar in Windows 7 as a failure in Vista and what were sidebar gadgets can now be anywhere . . like objects/widgets/gadgets). One less thing to support so better features can be added. [/quote] i know that maybe the sidebar was not used much, however it is still available in 7, should be in the programs fiolder right at the botto
Ryat you are using an os that is over 8 years old in trems of technology thats like stoneage also its more appropriate for xp users to upgrade then it is wor vista users as i said xp will be dropped from support in a few years
it will be included in OD10
in that case there is no reason why you shouldn't upgrade if you don't even have to pay for the os itselfperticually as stardock and other manufacturers will stop supporting xp in the near future
17 but i think some of them are definately different in the US compared to UK just tried again and got all right
try doing a registry cleen up with c cleaner or something similar or just do a system restore to when you installed the demo. Also it is the weekend, support are only in on weekdays
IP5 is still in beta so there are some things that are not working as they should but the majority of the icons will change
[quote who="thomassen" reply="53" id="2424345"]"Native DWM" support? What is meant by that?[/quote] DWM = Desktop Windows Manager
i think if you have an ultimate subscription it will count as 1.5 years, as you are paying for 1.5 normal OD subscriptions, though frogboy will be the best perso to confirm this
click on the arrow in the top left to bring up the menu and then tick show pre release versions
there is a beta version of dreamscapes out that does work in 7
Murex, the e-mail with the download links and serial etc, gives 2 downloads, one is mycolors, the other is a zip with the wb, ip etc packed in it. use that 2nd link and then extract the files
My colors will be removed from ODNT and is uncompatable with 7, however the individual themes themselves can be found as the second download link when you get the coformation e-mail as a zip file. in the zip file is the wb, ip and any gadgets that come with the theme. as for things saying not activated, right click on the app in impulse and see if there is an option in the right click menu called re-activate. Clicking this should activate the apps again.
