how in the .... ??

Wednesday, August 2, 2006 by HaemOGObliN | Discussion: DesktopX

Hey everybody,

Hope you're all doing well !! and hopefully someone can help me !!

Does anybody know if it's possible .. and if so how .. to change the font used for the 'Taskbar' object in DesktopX ??

I'd really love to make a start bar ... but I don't feel like learning SkinStudio just yet ... If someone could show me the way or clarify whether or not it's even possible ... it would be most appreciated !!

I'm really going nuts ...

Thanks

Look under Scripting/Namespaces.
From the manual

Object.Setfont
Syntax:
Object.SetFont fontName, size, boolBold, boolItalic, boolUnderline, boolStrikeOut, lfCharSet

Thanks a stack SirSmiley !!



another thing ... could you maybe help me with the taskbar's advanced settings ?? I dunno what I'm doing wrong ... I want to make selected/unselected items as well ...
I presume you must just type is the left values of the different markers (A,B,C,D,E) but it just doesn't want to work ...

Thanks

--------------------------------

Okay, got it ... stupid thing !!

I ended up having to use a .jpg and not a .png ... it just doesn't work with a .png ... lol ...

anyway,
Thanks again

OMG An ANSWER!!! Sorry but I use PNGs all the time for my object (transparency reasons) and I've been trying to make buttons for it and it just c**ks up either Crashing DesktopX or just looking odd! So the answer is JPG with MAGIC pink? Hmm intriguing! (unsure of spelling). I LUURRVVEE THESE FORUMS!!!

Ta, muchly appreciated
