DesktopX 3.2 preview
External scripts, Windows Vista compatibility, and more!
Wednesday, June 14, 2006 by Frogboy | Discussion: WinCustomize News
DesktopX 3.2 is now in beta if you have Object Desktop. Check out the article linked below to get not just a preview of what's new but an example of how DesktopX 3.2 will change the way scripts are made. It has features that we think many skinners have been looking for for a long time.

Being as I know nothing on how to create a DX object, script, etc, one thing I've always thought would be a great addition (if it's not too hard) is the ability to resize objects. Just a comment from the peanut gallery..............

Thanks, Carl 
I think (?) with the desktop builder that is built into it, you can resize objects on the last tab of the properties window.

You have always been able to resize objects.
Literally object.width and object.height. It'll stretch or tile them based on your settings.

Hey Folks;
I have been a wincustomize customer for a long time and still don't see the DeskTopX 3.2 anywhere? Anyone found it yet?

You have to be a ODNT subscriber and have set SDC to show pre-release versions. And 3.19 which shows at SDC is the 3.2 beta.
Fairyy~

Will the 3.2 version of DesktopX Professional finally
make it possible to create customized About screens that match
the created application?
Sorry, but the DesktopX advertising gotta go from the About-popup
if people are expected to use it for professional creations.
