Removing Hotkeys, other issues
Tuesday, June 21, 2005 by Chronologix | Discussion: DesktopX
i need a bit of help with this right now...
i am using the Tronnix theme with both windows blinds and desktopX, but i know that DesktopX has some hotkeys set for F9 and some other buttons, but i cannot find where i can change or remove this hotkey (i need it for other programs, and everytime it is pressed it minimized the applciation and returns to desktop)
As well, i noticed that when i press F9 it randomly lets my mouse go "over" the taskbar and DesktopX objects (otherwise the cursor will disappear behind the top and bottom bars, i am still able to click the buttons on the taskbar, but am not always sure that the cursor is on the button i want)
So what i need to know is:
a.)how to remove the hotkeys from DesktopX.
b.)allow the cursor to always be on top of the DesktopX Objects.

thank you...that helps me alot, but now some other issues have caught my attention.
1.) for the "Tronnix" theme, whenever i set a target for the internet, etc., quicklaunch buttons, it is reset every time my computer is restared/shutdown, is there a way that these buttons can save their target locations?
2.)when i first installed the theme everything worked fine except for my first 2 issues (after i restarted my computer it fixed the mouse-over problem, and you helped me fix the hotkey problem) but now AFTER i restarted my computer it gives me an error "Stardock MCP cannot be found, or wrong version" and i can no longer use any icons in the systray.

1) try this - in builder mode: set your tronnix the way you want, then 'save as' (I usually rename, such as Tronnix2 so I don't screw up the original) - that should give you 2 in the list. Then everything should be alright using your saved one in user mode.
