iconX problem
Friday, August 20, 2004 by retiredmaster | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
Just updated DesktopX from stardock central today and it seems to have lost my iconX settings. Not only that, but if I reset the icon settings to how I like them, then save them as an iconX theme, it doesn't load them when I restart desktopX, nor if I try to load the theme from within desktopX once it is running - the theme is listed, but it won't load.
Anyone else?

I think, they changed the theme handling. Nothing to do with SP2.

Yes, there is a new filetype in town called '.ixtheme'. Take Your old '.states' from the iconx\presets folder, rename it to .ixthemes and copy it to the iconx\themes folder.

ok - thank C242 that seemed to do the trick.
To to clarify, if you don't have a 'themes' folder inside your 'iconx' folder (I didn't), create one, then copy your 'whatever.states' file from your 'presets' folder into your new 'themes folder and rename it to 'whatever.ixtheme'. You should then find it in the IconX config in the themes tab.
