adding modules/plugins for objects

Friday, January 18, 2002 by Daniel Torres | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

I am new to desktop x and am trying to create a new theme. I would like to add different modules so that I can custumize my objects special atributes but I can't seem to find where to download the moudles. I have looked in the plug in section but only 4 are listed. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Can you be a little more specific with what you're trying to do? If you want to create some objects with some custom behaviours, and plugins don't already exists to do what you want, it may be time to break out the c++. Bear in mind also that a fair number of plugins are packaged with DX and not available for download on this site.

well, What I am trying to do is make an object that can utilize winamp contols. For example, I would like to use a back ground like the Ipac background and make the buttons of the bacground controll winamp control functions.

Not sure what I need to do this since I am new to this whole thing.

Thanks

There's a winamp plugin bundled with DX that does pretty much exactly that. You can configure controls with your own graphics, text display, progress meters etc. The easiest way to learn is just to play with it, it might also be helpful to download another theme (such as soundtox) which contains winamp controls and take a look at how they work.
