object bar plugins, anyone gotten them to work?
Sunday, August 11, 2002 by jardragon901 | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
Well actually I can get them to work but as soon as my bar is reloaded they go back to the defaults, yes I have saved the bar 
before i reloaded? Any help would be appreciated since the memory monitor is the last part to my perfect OB bar (for me anyway).

the only plugin I ever use is the lock taskbar plugin and it works great. There has been much discussion of ob bars not saving in the newsgroup. When you first started making your own bar, did you have the "use current windowblinds" option selected? If you did, and it's still selected, then that is probably what is causing your problems, probably. Otherwise, I'm not really sure. I have *never* understood the way OB saves things.

I use the taskbar lock plugin and the address plugin. They both work great. I've tried using the CPU monitor plugin but the problem is it doesn't retain the size and color configurations you set. Once you start OB again, it reverts to its defaults (which kinda makes it unusable at this point).

Is there a way to correct the clock.dll feature that is on some downloaded windowblinds? The clock will show up, but it has a fushia border around the actual clock.

just do what i do, use the "SDTaskManager v3.5". go to DesktopX section, and select plugins.
much more configurable, and works well in OB.
the only problem i have (which is know by the developers) is that the plugin scrolling graph display blanks its self now and then.
you should also be able to use the dxtoys plugin, just dont ask me how to set that one up, since i havent mastered that one yet.
