Object bar

Tuesday, August 9, 2011 by ladyj55 | Discussion: Tutorials

 Could someone give me some insight about Object Bar. I wanted to try it I have this wonderful plate full of different programs I know notthing about. I'm paying for them but don't use them, I guess out of fear I might mess something up on my computer. ( in fact that's the real reason) Well if anyone has any time I would be grateful for an answer?  I have OS XP sp3.

It's a launcher that can be customized with DesktopX widgets. I just checked and it kinda works on 7. Works like a charm on XP.

You can add, configure and swap widgets. You can add shortcuts. Lots of things to do with Object Bar.

In it's time, and still, for XP users, it is an awesome toy.

It won't hurt your computer.

ObjectBar is a discontinued application but was great when active.

Here is a cached version of a tutorial written years ago. http://web.archive.org/web/20081216224159/https://www.stardock.com/products/objectbar/docs/Creating_OB.asp

(I'll try and retrieve a version with images.)
