A question about DX

Friday, April 21, 2006 by TheGuyPC | Discussion: DesktopX

Hi,
I was just wondering if anyone knew of a way to get that dumb splash screen,(that says xxxx-desktop with the "o.k." button on the bottom), to quit popping up when loading a new DX Desktop? I figured out how to get it to stop asking me to "Save", but I can't figure out the splash screen.
It seems kind of pointless. I know it's loading the desktop, I applied it.

If anyone knows of a way, I'd be eternally greatful!

I'm not seeing that. Are you using the trial version or one of the paid versions?

I'm using a paid one. What ever the latest version is. I just downloaded it a few days ago.
Again, it happens when I switch directly from 1 DX desktop to another.

I could take a screen if you wish, but it just says the name of the desktop it's loading and forces you to click "o.k." at the bottom.

I say "forces", because there are no cancel options. Just "O.K."

Thanks in advance

Ah . . you are talking about the description on the desktop!

Open the theme an do a "save as . ." Leave the description blank.
I think that'll do it.

Well, that worked perfectly. I dunno why your fix didn't enter my feeble little mind..........I scare myself sometimes

Thanks again! That has been really bugging me.

TheGuyPC: How exactly do you disable that "Save" dialog on switching desktops? I've been hunting around and can't find an answer anywhere

If you modify a desktop and then switch to another desktop you will always get prompted to save I think. Same as if you made changes to a text file and quit. Not sure if that's your question . . . but that's an answer.
