DX objects moving

Monday, January 12, 2004 by DustyRoad | Discussion: Stardock Software

Hope someone can help me, My DX objects move towards the top of the screen till they are off the screen every time i restart my computer. Also my layer objects that aren't suposed to be seen till I click on a button are all open when I restart. I have fixed the position of the objects and saved the theme but the same thing happens again. This all started after I updated DX from stardock central. My version of DX is shown as being 2.09[b].002. I'm running Win XP. If any more info is needed let me know.

Your update is the Beta version, just go back to a previous version that worked for you until the bugs are worked out of the Beta
I have also noticed some bugs in this Beta

yep sometimes the objects and icons feel that they are more important then what I am doing and jump in front of everything. At least when desktopx is running. It gives them fuel to fight back. I enjoy fighting so I feed them as often as possible

isn't that the truth hehe. Sometimes I feel like OD has pushed my puter one step closer to AI, cause they aint doin what I want them to do. I've just been updating and didn't think to save an earlier version. Stupid me. So does anyone know where I can get an earlier version to go back to till bugs are worked out?All I have is version 1.something that I installed at the begining. DX2 worked on my system till the last update.

in stardock central go to the file menu, archive/restore, and choose restore existing. find a previous version of dx and it should revert back to it.

kongit thinks you have object desktop but is not sure

Well, I just went there but nothing was in the list. I haven't saved any prior versions so I guess i'm just out of luck till they come out with a new update, and hope it fixes my problems.

It should automatically archive the previous versions. I had a problem a while back with a beta of windowblinds and was guided to that option. I didn't and still don't manually archive older versions, but they show up in that list. I am confused.

nope don't like me one bit. But thats ok, they'll grow to love me I did check the list again and nothing there. As long as no evil object apears and starts taking my good objects away, I'll just keep smacking them back in place I guess
