Will the Widgets work with the new update? Because some of them don't work with the last update.

Last update? You mean a 2.x build? Most widgets should work wtih 3.0. We will be doing a "Ready for DesktopX 3" program where we'll be testing widgets out in the library and putting that sticker on the ones that we've tested.

I'm psyched. Just purchased and loaded full version Object Desktop and the lot of extras last week. All the new updates too. Have a question, I have read that there will be a different price for DX3 versions for the newcomer, but can't find what this will cost me to update from my current DX2.4 to the developers version of DX3? Thanks again can't wait!

I'm looking forward to this release. I've been using the shareware version of desktopx 2 for a while and have been debating whether or not to shell 24.95 for it. But When version 3 comes out, I think it will be worth it.

In the IRC chat earlier it was mentioned that DesktopX 3 Pro would be priced $69.90. Was that correct? In that case; can I preorder it now? I saw that you could preorder the Standard version, vut I could not find the Pro.

Did they fix widget position on desktop? So they remember their position on desktop like they use to without adding a script to them that tells them to save position or isn't it that very important..

Thanks, I wanted to make widgets but recently they didn't remember position without writing script, and I didn't want to ask somebody to do that.It just seems to be a hassle having to reposition them after start up..

bigtime. I just finished reading all the articles posted about DX 3, started SDC and got a 'your subscription to SDC will expire in one month, want to renew now' thing. Perfect timing
