Is anyone having trouble installing DTX using stardock central lately? I have been trying to get it installed on my laptop and the progress bar just says its downloading and downloading hitting 100% several times always downloading dx.sdc. Am I doing something wrong? Jose

Well I just downloaded the newest OB, which in the news section is being touted as an RC and you still can not add icons to sub Menus. This is a feature that was in the 1.65 version, so I had hoped that it would come back. Does anyone know if this feature will be reinstated prior to the actual 2.0 version? Jose

its kinf of a pain, but you can edit the parent bar ini file directly and add in the missing icon reference. it doesn't always work, but right now its the only way that I've found to get the icons back. I hope they bring this functionality back soon, I really liked it in the older versions Jose

All I wanted was a small object to toggle altdesk on and off. you can set altdesk to toggle on and off by using hotkeys so i wanted to simulate the hotkeys. What I did to get around the key issue is to change the hotkeys for altdesk to someting easier to send

Sorry I should have been more specific, what I want to send is "{win}a", ^{esc} is the windows key, but it does not look like you can combine it with anything. Or at least ctrl-esc from the keyboard does not let you add the "a" after it, so I'm still stuck, but thanks for the sugestion

HI all, I made my own "picture frame" after lookint at "newlandframes" and realizing that what he was doing was using IE and rendering a webpage on the fly to hold the reference to the image. Really very cool. But what I wanted was a picture frame that would load pictures at random from a folder.

Also incase anyone was wondering my spects: AMD XP 28
