Wallchangers
Saturday, March 31, 2007 by ArileenDesign | Discussion: DesktopX
Hi
I search for a long time a way to solve this issue.
In fact, in all wallchangers (objects/widgets) i have checked out there is the same mater.
When you click on them to change the wall often you need to press F5 or to go in display properties to refresh the wallpaper on desktop. that's su*censored* a lot.
If there somebody who can help me to solve this.
PS: i have try also with the Omni wallchanger by Tiggz and it's the same....

Very interesting thread! 
Though, I never had the problem you are mentioning Quentin94, never happens if the file is in .jpg format, maybe it happens with other file formats... just my 2 cents

Ok it's not fine i have tried some wallchangers and others code like the wallchangers tutorial by RomanDA and it still the same all runs good when you are with DX open but when DX is closed all widgets and gadgets no runs good.
Shortcuts (Dx normals shortcuts-> right click-> "select the target") not runs, you can't select the target.
wallchangers not runs too they keep wallpapers you select but not apply them the last wall still stay and you need to press F5 (when that's runs) or lock unlock the taskbar.
It appear here at less that certain function or code create/use in DX builder or DX not runs in widgets or gadgets.
For example the wallchanger code by RomanDA run really good on an object or theme but not in widget or gadget. There is anybody who get the same mater?

here is the way to change wallpapers with user32.dll:
Dim wp
Set objShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
wp = "the path to your wallpaper"
objShell.regwrite "HKCU\Control Panel\Desktop\Wallpaper", wp
objShell.Run "%windir%\System32\RUNDLL32.EXE user32.dll,UpdatePerUserSystemParameters", 1, True
Set objShell = nothing
