sViz, I would suggest you take and load desktopx, switch to "builder" mode, then import a widget that you are interested in seeing how works. You can look at the code and see how things are done. Then try and setup something similar. You might also want to look up "VBSCRIPT" on the internet and see how it works, as that is the main language (well Javescript as well) in DX. Personally, i find it best to examine othe

Ok ok ok ok.. the "reserve edge of screen" is PERFECT!! Now, let me be able to do this with DX v3.2 or is it 3.3? So i can make a "DOCK" that can reserve the screen area i want to make avail for my screen. IE: Like the GalCivII dock im playing with, it would be great to be able to block off the top/sides/bottom of the screen for the dock!! Keep up the great work all!!

I will post this as a widget when i get a few mins. I want to include how to save the state after you size/move it as well. Want to try and make it as generic as possible, even include some objects inside to show how to move them and resize them as well.

I like the way the programmer of SportStrip notifies of updates to the gadget. I thought this was a great feature to add, espically since the SportStrip has a LOT of possible changes, due to the feeds and games, etc. I have put out about 11 or more updates to this since it was released, and the way

I believe that in order to rate a skin, you need to first download it, not just LOOK at it, or judge it on the screen shot (unless it’s a wall paper or screen shot, and why would you rate a screen shot??). Widgets, WB skins, and lots of other skins have a LOT in them you can’t see in a screen shot. Also, I think that if you want to rate a skin it should show your nick as well as your rating. This way people that are trying to gain favor

clwoods, Nothing is judged by it's quality here. It is judged by whether or not you are a brown noser, I dont know, I dont know who is rating my skins, i have no idea how i would even find out who is rating them. Also, I rarely look at the nick on a skin, i look at the skin, and to be ho

I think a good idea would be to have it FTP to a "common" location and then set a "flag" that there is a new file on the computer your sending the file to, and it would be able to ftp into the same location and download the file. I have not tried anything to do with FTP from DX so im not sure how it works, or how it can be setup. But it could be an interesting idea.

The right version is actually in the "ABOUT" box in each gadget. I will look at getting the "latest" versions uploaded, im not sure why they floppy is being probed, as i dont recal the gadget version ever having the code from the one that probed the floppy. As for the calendar, try closing it and reloading it, or even just deleting it and downloading a new one. Its possible that in the back and forth of open/closing it hung and l

Hey all.. Glad your enjoying the "toys" Got a LOT more on the way.. Keep checking back for more! Notes: The weather "should" work world-wide. The Drive meter was fixed NOT to probe the floppy. (thought i had that working on all the test systems) - Will look into it. I am not employed by stardock, just love DX and GalCivII !! Keep checking back, got some REALLY great ones coming!

Does that work if there is no proxy? Meaning if i make a gadget and some people have a proxy and some don't will it work for both? or do i need something in the pref's to say "use proxy"?
