Reply to Please show battery percentage in Start11 taskbar in Start Menu Products Stardock Forums

[quote]Please, for the love of God, give us the option to show the battery percentage to the taskbar in Start11! [/quote] I assume you know the battery percentage is shown when you hover over the battery icon in the Taskbar. If you are asking for an option to always display it on the Taskbar, I wouldn't get my hopes up for Microsoft to do this. The fact that the data is available in the OS, it's possible Stardock could capture this data and display it on their custom Taskba

Reply to Concerns in Start Menu Products Stardock Forums

I would like to thank Stardock Software for working tirelessly on providing their users with an alternative to the Start Menu and Taskbar on Windows 10 and 11. I have used a lot of different software over the last 30+ years and never have I seen a company that listens to and works so closely with its users in customer support! I haven't seen anything like this thread on any of the Stardock forums since I became a member in 2018. It's totally inappropriate for the tone taken towards St

Reply to Iconpackager annoyances in IconPackager Stardock Forums

I also agree that Icon Packager is due for an update. This package is very powerful and could be a big seller if it is marketed correctly. I can't imagine that it would be terribly difficult to update, however, all of the Stardock human resources seem to be involved in the Start 11 project. Everything else seems to be on the back burner for now. The only drawback that I see is that it would need to be backward compatible with the hundreds of Icon packages available on WinCustomize.

[quote who="retiredmaster" reply="6" id="3851369"] Well that's open to opinion and whether your eyes can tell the difference. [/quote] Thank you for these comparisons. I agree that individual sizing is better on some icons, but OS scaled sizing is okay on others. Microsoft includes 256x256-32, 64x64-32, 48x48-32, 40x40-32, 32x32-32, 24x24-32, 20x20-32, and 16x16-32 sizes with their system icons.

Reply to Show Additional Information on the Desktop in DeskScapes Stardock Forums

[quote quoting="post"] I have read of a way to have DeskScapes show additional information on the desktop. I think that I saw something about that during the initial setup but chose to have it not be shown. What does that show (system uptime, filenames of current backgrounds, and things of the sort) (?)? Can I have it shown without uninstalling and reinstalling DeskScapes? [/quote] Read through this post. <a href="https://forums.stardock.com/508845/desktop-informatio

Custom Text Color for Desktop Information Panel in DeskScapes Stardock Forums

I found and am able to use a custom color by changing the Value Data for the ColourOveride string in the Registry. Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Stardock\Deskscapes\DS11.ini\Clock\ColourOveride This value is Decimal, so you must first convert your color to a Decimal value.

There are cursors with over a 1000 daily downloads. Typically, 50 to 75 daily downloads are the range for very popular cursors. Are these real downloads or is there a glitch in the system? Just curious because there has not been this much interest in CursorFX for a while now.
