More DX testers needed, please in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

http://pws.chartermi.net/~digital_trucker/test_gauges/DriveGauges.dxpack These gauges populate automatically based on the number of drives in your system. They're SUPPOSED to reset themselves if you add or remove a drive. I don't have any removable drives myself, so i need someone with DX and removable drives to test them for me. Respond here or in #stardock, thanks much!

Thanks to some advice from PJ, I've fixed the scripts a bit to close some memory holes...new versions here for testers... http://pws.chartermi.net/~digital_trucker/test_gauges/testHardDriveGauges.dxpack http://pws.chartermi.net/~digital_trucker/test_gauges/testOpticalDriveGauges.dxpack Thanks for all the help, folks!

I also have a question about the script I'm using... drive.DriveType returns a 1 for a floppy, 2 for a hard drive, and 4 for a CD/DVD. What drive would return a 3? or a 5? How many different types are there?

http://pws.chartermi.net/~digital_trucker/testDriveGauges.dxpack This pack auto-generates gauges. One for every ready hard drive. It works fine on my system with 3 drives, and seems to work fine on others. However, on some machines with multiple hard drives, it crashed DX or fails to label the gauges. I need someone who knows what they're doing with DX Script to check 'em out and help me perfect them. Thanks, folks! Wrong board...sorry [Message Edited]

Or you could do what I do...create something nice (one guy rated it a 9 ), but because it's so extraordinarily out-of-the-ordinary that it only enjoys limited use. Ah well, the price of individuality...(or just plain being weird,I forget which).

Basically, what I want to do is have the theme create one complete analog gauge for every logical drive (hard drives, CD, DVD, etc.) on the user's system. Of course, that will be different for everyone. Hence the need to create/duplicate objects dynamically on theme load. I believe it can be done, I've just got to learn how to do it.

Will do Say, I hear you know a bit about creating DX objects dynamically? As part of my theme, I'm going to have analog drive gauges...I'm going to want to dynamically create a gauge for each logical drive when the theme loads. I've got MSM, AIM, and YaGoo if yuo're interested in helping me in real time.
