Apparently you can run them both together, but I think bad things can happen. Jafo knows more about it I think, I'm sure he will clear this up.

Deadman...I haven't run them together....but I'm willing to bet that there will be one or two issues with doing so...
There are some with LiteSTEP and Hoverdesk, for example....in this case, to do with z-order....what is on top of what.
I suspect desktop.dll in LiteSTEP may not be happy with DesktopX....but I will have to try it out....pull its wings off and see if it can walk...

I think there are some systray issues as well. But that is just heresay as I haven't tried DesktopX (yet).

Well, just fired up DesktopX [current version] over 20010102 build of LiteSTEP and I now have a wall by adni, and an analogue clock.
Nothing else....the 'STEP shortcuts are frozen...therefore desktop2.dll is not happy.
I'll have to kill the process [in win2k] and delve a bit deeper.....where's that FM, TR?...

Wow....Jafo gotta have a closer look at this....
Serious arguments as to who was boss.....cpu was working overtime.
I'll kill a few modules in LiteSTEP, just run the basic.....lose the scripting, and have another go.....

Let's get ready to rrrrrrrrrrumble!
Desktop X vs Litestep.
Lets hope it's a good clean fight, no kicking, gouging or pulling of pop-up's! heh.
