DesktopX problem

Monday, April 26, 2004 by DjStoic | Discussion: Stardock Software

I'm having a problem with my desktopX. I reduce my work area by 25 at the top of my screen. Then I have several objects I put in that space at the top of the screen. My problem is, when I reboot my computer the objects I placed in that area at or near the top of my screen get moved on the y axis by -25, so I can't even see the objects. This is extremely annoying as one might expect. Please help

It sounds like the objects you are moving are related to the position of another object. Perhaps they have a " parent" or are a "group". I would check the objects properties and se what relationship is going on. Its just a thought hope it helps.

An easy way to do it, is set specific coordinates in a script. It''s a one line code, goes like this:

Sub Object_OnScriptEnter
Object.Move 0, -25
End Sub

When you create a new script, the Sub is already there, you just need to add Object.Move part, just to clarify...

The first number is left-right, second number is up-down. Just play with them until you get the object where you want it, then, everytime you load your theme, they will move exactly where you want them.
