WinXP Power Toys/Multiple Desktops

from WinCustomize Forums
Have recently downloaded XP Power Toys, ONLY the program for multiple desktops, "Virtual Desktop Manager." Am having problems getting the wallpapers for the various desktops to "stick." When I bring a desktop out of "preview" the wallpaper disappears. Does anyone having this program have some words of wisdom, would really appreciate some help!

In advance..........Thanks! :l

Ah...another simple advantage of LiteSTEP....any number of VWMs [desktops], and the walls are easy to configure....[once you know your way around a step.rc]...

Haven't tried that proggy though...the only add-on I did try was the WinAMP to WMP skin converter...

I have been using MS VWM and It works great!

In the options I unchecked the shared desktops and then configured the wallpaper fron the menu and have had no problems..

Thanks Tast.....figured it out, after awhile. In thinking it is a "Windows"-type program, naturally went to display appearance under control panel. Thanks for your response..............wasn't in the buying software frame of mind, know what I mean? Always enjoy the benefits of a "freebie" when possible.

Appreciate the effort on your part Jafo!
