[quote who="Zubaz" reply="32" id="2771334"]Because Win 7 has such a good UI ODNT needs to focus on where it started, productivity. That's where apps like RighClick, ObjectBar, Control Center started out and I thing there is still a need there. [/quote] +1! Can we revive Object Edit please?
DesktopX4 I second the suggestion of multi-monitor taskbar with support for Win7's taskbar features.

[quote who="RedneckDude" reply="43" id="2770270"] There is a difference between helping the situation, reporting bugs, suggestions on how to fix, and the other end which is bitching and moaning. The latter won't help, so why do it? [/quote] I have reported a long list of bugs and issues, here is a blog post summary from 2007: http://www.thomthom.net/blog/2007/08/desktopx-b
Dare I ask about DesktopX?
I have UAC off on my main system. As I keep doing stuff that makes it pop up. But on my laptop that I just bought I kept it on. I don't do that much to it that triggers the UAC. Then there's the issue of compiling DX gadgets - I'd expect that gadgets compiled with DX3.5 will have problems with UAC? That'd be a problem when sharing them to other users. DX4 seemed to not have issues with UAC though.
[quote]DX 3.5 runs wonderfully on 7.[/quote] With or without UAC?
what would be cool is multitouch input support. some really neat apps could be made.
Has anyone from SD mentioned anything about DesktopX lately? I just got myself a notebook with touch screen - starting to get some ideas for a touch interface built in DX, but it'd be nice to use a DX4 version instead of the old DX3 - especially since it runs Win7.
Got the icon working now. OD has tried to reference Program Files (x86) instead of the actual 64bit path. and yes - I did drag the correct 64bit link to the dock - seem to be the OD read it incorrectly. When I updated the path to the ps.exe the icon updated itself correctly.
btw - my OD+ version, according to Impulse, Last Updated 29.07.2010 (could not find the About box anymore either... ? )
I got CS5 installed. I added the suite's shortcuts to the dock. However, the PS icon isn't using the icon that belongs to ps.exe. For some reason it uses a custom one. Clicking Reset Icon doesn't work. Can I can't find a way to pick an icon that is part of an .exe file. All the other CS suite apps's icon display fine.

Been trying to find command lists for the config files for making themes..etc.. [/quote] Help files are usually something that comes very late in the production of software.

I can't see any video... I got Flash 10 installed on my Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit system. Tried both Firefox 3.6 and Internet Explorer 8.
When it was mentioned a couple of years ago, PPC was pretty much done, as far as I remember it being said. Now its been a while, and I notice software starts to drop PPC support. Will PPC support be kept? No way to get my grubby hands on a beta? [e digicons]:grin:[/e] (if PPC works but Intel don't - no problem for me)

It's not paying to participate in the beta. It's preordering OD2.0 for a discount - and it allows you to be part of it's beta.
Yes, I'm aware of that. But some years ago there was talk about OSX. Apparently it was working on the old PowerPCs, but got delayed when the new Intel Macs came. Since then there's been silence. So I was wondering if OSX is still being developed, or if it has been shelved? And I am also interested if future Linux support has been considered or planned.
Has there been any metion of ODs statup speed? I find that tabbed docks start up 5-10 seconds after normal docks when they start growing in size.
VirtualPC?
I was thinking of platforms more in terms of OSX and Linux. Got a couple of that kind of boxes sitting here.
Hi Mike. Thanks for the link. So MP is now a per-application subscription thing? I'm not too concerned about KeepSafe, but I'm very curious in regard to MP and plans for other platforms.
I'm not sure what the issue is with the object browser - not something I've mentioned along with my reports of the script editor font. I'm only aware of the script editor font issue. Which would not be an issue if the propery page that let you set the script editor font would remember the setting. I wonder if that entry in the changelog refer to this issue. Seeing how we're quite a few people affected it's odd if it can't be reproduced.
- Not reproduced: layout/font issues with script editor and object browser Am I the only one that get that stupid Bangshe font when I use the Script editor? I've have that on ALL computers I've tried running Vista or W7...
[quote who="Neil Banfield" reply="13" id="2493624"] The MP Mac client has been something of a pain. We have a PPC version running but then the Intel macs appeared. Recent developments mean there are now more macs around Stardock so it looks good for that to finally be released this year. As for Linux, I don't recall talking about that myself. Thinkdesk, I honestly don't know.[/quote] Ooooh! My mac is an old PPC! But mac version will not be releas
[quote who="Neil Banfield" reply="6" id="2493422"] Personally I think even if the news is bad news the customer would be happier knowing rather than hearing nothing [...] [/quote] Yes, bad news is much better than no news at all. It's where I feel SD hasn't been to good with the recent years. Examples, other thann OD; DesktopX - now we finally get some info though, but it's taken a long time. Another example, Multiplicity, there was talk about Linux or OSX versions at some
