Object browser font is fine here.

Me too...dangit!!  

I'm not sure what the issue is with the object browser - not something I've mentioned along with my reports of the script editor font.

I'm only aware of the script editor font issue. Which would not be an issue if the propery page that let you set the script editor font would remember the setting.

I wonder if that entry in the changelog refer to this issue. Seeing how we're quite a few people affected it's odd if it can't be reproduced.

Is it just me or is the object list now stuck always on top of all windows?

Ya I'm also seeing that. XPHomeSP3DTXStandard

i need to start messing with 4.0 but i want to keep 3.5 so i can go back to it easily.. im sure its out there, but can someone point me to a link or post that shows me how to go back and forth easily?

thanks.

How to run DX 3.5 And DX 4.0 "side-by-side" (you can't have both of them running at the same time though)

1. Go to %Program Files%\Stardock\ and make a copy of the DesktopX folder (and rename it to DesktopX3 for example). 
2. Install DX4.0 (doing a clean install might be preferable)
3. Plugin path is hardcoded (and probably object/desktops), so you will have to copy the SDPlugin folder from the old location (DesktopX3) to the new version folder.
4. If you want to have the old plugins available to DX4.0, you need to copy them to the new plugin location too. There are located in %ProgramData%\Stardock\DesktopX. Simply copy the files you want from the SDPlugin folder in the DesktopX3 installation (do not overwrite the new dll files, especially DXAxHost.app/dll)

What about archiving? Haven't tried it myself (I forgot to set this before I updated to  4) You can set Impulse Preferences to archive programs before updating. Then you could always restore to an earlier version.

VirtualPC?

I like this idea..   thanks all

I don't know if this is a DX4 thing, but it seems object.persiststorage fails on export to gadget. Gadgets do not remember settings stored in this manner. I didn't notice this happening before. Can anyone else confirm?

I'll check it on XP if you point me to a gadget on WC that I can try it with. (Or is it just on something you create at this point?)

Here's a recent object I was working on  http://www.box.net/shared/jzcr4shkzd

It's pretty simple. Saves the image to persiststorage on click. Restores the image from storage on start up. Export to gadget and it doesn't remember the last saved image, reverts back to the image it was exported with.

I'm on DTXStandard so I can't export to gadgets (I guess I can say that lockout is working).  I exported it as a widget and it does retain the last image setting but I know that's not what you were asking.  It would have to already be a gadget before I can check that.

Mostly, I wanted to know if it's my DX that isn't exporting right or if the problem is universal.

But here's the gadget, anyway: http://www.box.net/shared/2podz8mh6b

With the gadget I see the image that was up at close (landscape or abstract) pop up for about a quarter of a second when it starts up, then it immediately flips back to the original flower.

In case it has anything to do with it, immediately after I close the gadget I consistently get the "Unknown Publisher / Are you sure you want to run this software" dialog that XP puts out when starting an exe, then clicking on run or cancel at that point does nothing besides close the dialog box.  I don't get the erroneous message when I close the widget I exported.

Still doesn't really answer your question but that's about the best I can do.

This isn't exactly a bug, but I have a question for the people behind all this....

I have 3 instances of DesktopX on my system. Which is needed and which isn't?

Where is the real DesktopX install found?  I have Pro and normal versions, according to Impulse, why both?  Please someone help a redneck sort this crap out.

There is one set in Program Files under Stardock.

There is one in Program Files under Stardock/ObjectDesktop.

Then there is the one in Public Documents/Stardock.

OK, not only did I have the above problem....I have these errors also.  Windows 7 32 bit.   IE8.

Needless to say, my fix for this was to revert to 3.5.  I have to be able to use DX.

BUMP... any news on DX4?
