Object pops to corner

from Stardock Forums

I recently installed DesktopX v3.5. I downloaded a spinning Earth object to demo what objects are supposed to do. It's a nice little bit of eye candy, but no matter where I drag it, it keeps popping up to the upper left corner of the screen. I can't really pin down a specific set of keystrokes or mouse clicks that causes this to happen. Sometimes it moves right away and sometimes it sticks for a few minutes. Do you need to somehow manually lock objects to specific screen location?

Do you have a link to the object?

Unless the object is programmed to move to the upper-left corner, it shouldn't move about randomly. Could be the rotation issue/bug with v3.5, though that bug never had the object jumping across the screen (at least not for me.)

If all else fails you could try Clearing the Cache

are you dragging it to the 2nd monitor?  some dx widgets can have code in them that moves them to a locaition if the current x/y is off the screen.

Email the person who made the gadget/widget and tell them whats going on.
