Desktop X weather object grouped?
Sunday, May 30, 2004 by Richard Mohler | Discussion: Stardock Software
I finally have my weather background and have all the weather objects on it and it works but, I can't figure out how to group them so they don't move. Tried alot of different stuff but not the right one. Can anyone help? Thanks

Is there some reason why when I group the weather objects with the background they still move?

Nevermind I figured it out but I'm still having problem with script. Do you copy and paste it from another script or what?

what sort of problems are you having with the script? If you are getting error messages report them here in as much detail as possible, it will help in identifying the cause of the trouble.
The problem with copying and pasting from another script is that the script will not necessairly reference the same objects as you have created.
If you look at the script you will see lines such as:
DesktopX.Object("an_object").Text="some text" (or a variable)
if you copy the script from a different object it is possible, even likely, that "an_object" won't exist in your weather object
the copied script may also differ in its functionality from your object - not all weather objects are created equal etc
