DesktopX 2.1 - Reports
Saturday, February 28, 2004 by gef | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
Has anyone else found problems with version 2.1?
The most annoying to me is that I tend to use themes with bottom bars but when I boot-up, at first the bar doesn't appear but if I then load the same theme,it does appear.
Could be something I'm doing wrong I suppose.

Yes, I've noticed that sometimes on first loading objects the scripts don't appear to respond. If I then subsequently restart dx everything works as it should.
Also I've noticed some strange behaviours on object deletion. If I choose yes to d e l e t e (excuse the spacing, WC seems not to like this word atm) related objects too, random objects in other groups mysteriously vanish. I have experimented with this, checked and dbl checked all depedancies, groups and parent/child relationships, object IDs and so forth, it just appears to be a gremlin.

I third that. I've had exactly what gef described happening to me. It's really annoying to have to reload a theme everytime you start DX because it doesn't load properly the first time.
And I've had the problem of Tiggz when for example, I change the property of a object from 'normal' to 'always on top', it sometimes the object altogether on reload... weird.
Oh, latest version (beta) of DX installed here...
Edit: There was an update a few days ago (a new beta), but the problems were present in the last 2 versions of DX on SDC.

I'm using version 2.19e and the only issue I have is when I'm running iconX and click on a file to delete the image it stays there until I refresh the whole screen. This never use to happen before.

I have had similiar problems. I am using 2.10a, that I updated the 15th of May. I am still having problems after the update. The objects will be loacted in different areas of the desktop on the restart of Windows (XP SP1). It was really annoying at first, I spend long time configuring an really cool thme by [gef] and afterwards i restarded my windows and everything was all over the desktop. I reloaded it from desktopx and wallah, everything was fine..... This only happend when I restart or log off.... oddly, going into hibernation allows me to return as is.... any ideas....????
