Keep away from Norway then. It's been -10C - -20C here in Trondheim. (Colder some other places). My poor electric heaters can't keep up! ...all the heat goes up to the neighbour above - I'm at the ground floor... *grumble*

I'm curious. Will future DX Pro contiunue in it's same form? being able to make standalone exes?
This is interesting. I've not used Python before, but I wouldn't think that's be much of a problem. About a year ago I picked up Ruby to write plugins for Sketchup. That went well as I had experience with JS, VBS, VB, PHP etc. It was a more of a matter of learning the syntax. And I've grown to like the Ruby syntax quite a lot. I hear Python mentioned quite often and it sound like an interesting language to use. Using our own IDE also sounds good to me. I'm curious if these Python plans means a
My Thinkdesk subscription expired in september, I just noticed. But I wonder, is there any point renewing? There's only two apps in the pacakge. KeepSafe and Multiplicity. KeepSafe I haven't used for a couple of years now. Not sure I really need it. Multiplicity I have bought the Pro version of (which sasys it doesn't have an expiery date..?) I haven't been around WC that much the past few years, so I'm not up to speed with everything. What is the status of ThinkDesk? Are ther
[quote who="RedneckDude" reply="221" id="2488763"] I have always had to use the above script, which I got from the MyComputer object that comes with DX, if memory serves.[/quote] I belive it worked pre-Vista.
[quote who="Phoon" reply="218" id="2488677"]For the benefit of the skinners: In Windows 7 if you try to create an Object Type of Folder Shortcut, My Computer is not listed. (see reply #3 for more details). [/quote] This is present in Vista as well, isn't it? I thought it was a 3.5 bug.
[quote who="Frogboy" reply="215" id="2486487"] I'll be highlighting our goals shortly but DesktopX 4.0's goal is not to be some sort of major rewrite but rather something that makes it ready for the next-gen version of Windows. [/quote] Sounds good to me. New features isn't all to interesting before the existing issues is fixed. And I belive that when they are addressed it'll be easier to work with DX and hopefully more new stuff will be produced I've begun to look b
[quote who="Frogboy" reply="193" id="2484349"] I can understand that the UAC and Windows infrastucture is causing pain for the SD developers. But, can't we, the users get some feedback? I have given my spesific issues - a number of times, over several years, in any channel I've found -besides calling up SD support on the phone. I don't really have an answer to this because you were supposed to be getting feedback from us. What I can tell you is that I'll be posting in the
[quote who="Littleboy" reply="182" id="2482398"] Moreover, for all the complaining I see, there aren't a lot of specifics. Just complaints. Here is the list of bugs I reported in the past which I re-tested against the first beta. The full details and repro-steps should already be in your bug tracker. You can also find a list of old problems on thomthom website.[/quote] whohoo! someone has noticed my bug reports! It would be nice if there would be any feedback
[quote who="RedneckDude" reply="111" id="2475481"]Well guys, I have to say to those of you who are afraid DX will slowly die. Maybe if Brad saw some more action in the DX galleries, attention would be paid. I know I'm not the best skinner, and I'm definitely not a coder like David, or sViz, martin, Vadm,etc. But I pretty much own the DesktopX theme library. If more of us would start putting out nice, usable skins for DX, it might get more love from Stardock. Besides the fact that I love DX, m
Ok - this seems to be the official bug report thread. I'll add what I posted in the other. Just to be sure. I was checcking out DX4 and looking back at some of the bugs, issues I reported years ago: here's one from 2007: http://www.thomthom.net/blog/2007/08/desktopx-bugs-issues-and-featu
I was skimming through this thread and forum, but wasn't able to find any changelog. Which I also looked for in the DX folder. Is there any, anywhere? I haven't been around here at WC for a couple of years now. And I haven't used DX either for a long while. Got some hopes on this new DX4 - but I'm still not sure what to expect. Ithought I read somewhere that DX4 would allow widgets to become user skinable. Is that correct? But before any new features I'd much mo
I was checcking out DX4 and looking back at some of the bugs, issues I reported years ago: here's one from 2007: http://www.thomthom.net/blog/2007/08/desktopx-bugs-issues-and-feature-requests/ with some dating as far back as at least 2005: http://www.thomthom.net/storage/software/sd_bugs_issues_features.html And I see nothing addressed. :/
There's one thing about ObjectDock+ that has bothered me. The tabbed docks are slow to load. Has this been addressed in the next version?
I have ODNT and DesktopX Pro - will the beta show up for me? I mean to remember in the past that getting the DX betas wasn't doable when you have DX Pro..? (Or is my memory slipping..?)
I know - I was curious of the "native" bit.
And is there any more news on DesktopX4? From a developmenters point of view. Improved scripting environment? Being able to create reusable objects?
"Native DWM" support? What is meant by that?
Fences is the best thing since sliced bread and tabbed Object Dock. :)

Could you please do this for me - just answer the very first that comes to your mind immediately. No pondering or looking up any references. IMPORTANT! Don't read the other's replies before you post!

hm... earlier it was possible to log into a page where it listed all your support tickets... is it still around?
Any news on new releases of ObjectDock?
