Problem with unloading objects on desktop.
Thursday, November 4, 2004 by RJ25 | Discussion: Stardock Software
For my first project I'm creating a few DesktopX Objects. The only problem I'm having is that when I close them from the desktop and attempt to bring them up again, they're still in the memory/list of DesktopX, and hence bring about a message declaring so. (Note: This problem might be a mute issue if they were widgets, but I only have the freeware version of DesktopX and can't create widgets with it.) So my question is how do I unload an object from DesktopX's memory/list when closing it?

When you create an object that has more than one object in it (a text layer and a graphic). When you delete one of them, it will not delete the other. This is because DX doesn't know they are associated. To do this you have to go into the object properties and the summary tab and give the object a name (object_text, object_graphic1) and widget name (object). You have to do this for each layer you have in the object. Hope this helps.
This may sound a little wordy. If you have any questions refer to the DX Developers Guide, page 13.
