It's because obj is only created within the Object_OnLbuttonupEx and passed on to the function tBarSlide . You need to store the object in a variable in the global script space. Though the problem with that is what happends if the timer get called simultaneously from several objects. They'd then overwrite themself.
What's Lua coding?
That's great news. The sidebar doesn't allow to much space to be used so it'd be good to be able to expand when possible. How about the flyout? ...would it perhaps be enough to expand the size of the gadget and it'd overflow the sidebar? hm... that could perhaps allow for nice flyouts as I'm not too impressed by the glassy container the sidebar gadgets use for when a flyout menu appears.
Ok. Is that not coming in DX3.5?
Sorry to keep asking this but; is there new events for when the gadget docks and undocks? Any way of detecting the dock state? Any way of adding a settings dialog windows?
What do you mean? Localization of the program? Or syntax highlighting of multiple languages in one doc? That can already be done you know.
Fingers crossed for July
I still don't think it's a good idea to recommend users to turn of the UAC. Having the option there is fine, but encouraging doesn't seem good. It's even on the top of the list.
Tech; I got 5 gadgets in my sidebar as I type this. The sidebar process uses about 8mb ram. I like the option of exporting to sidebar gadget. Currently I have one DX version and one Sidebar version of my London Tube gadget. Each gadget contain alot of similar code, but it's still some differences and I have to remember to mirror the code to the other project as I make changes to one. With DX.3.5 I can start coding solely with DX and simply export it into two formats.
yea, you'd have to create an object that covers the desktop on the lowest z-order. however, it'd render the icons unclickable... And doubleclick functions you have to do your self. I should have a little snippet somewhere that get's the double click delay and deviation radius from the windows system somewhere. The double click action could vary from system to system so you really want to get the info from the registry instead of hardcoding it.
Is this the same beta that accidental came out a couple of weeks ago? Cause I don't see an update? Or is this update for the normal DX and not the Pro? And is there API to handle docking undocking and settings?
What did you originally create them in? Does it have the option to export to an Dream compatible format? I'd think that exporting it from the original source would produce a better result than converting the first output.

Hmm... scriptable flyout? have it define by a matrix or function..?

I've been using this for my three comps. Two desktops where the main runs Vista, the second Vista and XP (also Ubuntu, but doesn't count here...) and also my laptop running XP. I love how easy it is to simply plonk my laptop onto my desk next to the other monitors and just immediately start controlling it from my main set of mouse and keyboard. Though I will have to jump on a bandwagon and ask what the status for OSX version is. I've got a mac here which would be nice to trough into the
I have had problems with embedded fonts not working 100% of the time. So when i make a gadget (for sale) i make a SETUP.exe file using a free program called Inno Setup that allows you to install fonts, programs, etc. It works great. I think some fonts got come protection data in it that will prevent apps from embedding it.
GReat. Thanks for the heads up!

it gives me bad flashbacks to websites that where "designed for internet explorer" or "designed for netscape navigator" ugh...
ouch!
thomassen is too afraid to look...
awh... I thougth it was something about the beer XXXX.
Is it stored as meta data? What's to prevent users from removing that bit of info?
Never mind. Just realised it was the new 8.5 beta I've been having trubble downloading. Got it now.
How did you get Messenger skinned like hat?
Might also be an sound on End Navigation...
and on steriods Yea, throw in that keyboard that was around a few years ago that was completely operated without keys, but by a multi-touch surface area. Had a replaceable decking which allowed you to create custom layouts. And you could to hand gestures just like what you saw on the Surface.
