Gadget Trouble

When I have this happen to me with a Widget of Object, I frist delect the item using DX Builder under list objects, then delete the cache for the item, which probably has the postion stored in it, and then load it again and it appears on screen.  I would think that would work with Gadgets also.

Nope, won't work for gadgets. You can't import a gadget into DX, therefore it won't show up in the object navigator. Objects and widgets, but not gadgets. If only it were that easy!  Thanks anyway, John. 

Well then who we need is somewho makes Gadgets to see this.  Lets see If I can make that happen.

Yup,it's true. One poof too many and now it's gone. Something has to be storing its off-screen location as it opens there even after deleting the Fire suite(all components) and the .suite file,clearing all caches ,running CCleaner,rebooting and redownloading and installing the suite.

It appears in taskman but the weather gadget is nowhere to be found.Last seen heading North by Northwest off of my desktop.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Do other gadgets work alright? Also where is this gadget as to look at?

Yes,all other gadgets are fine including the Fire clock. It's the weather gadget that was included with the subscriber suite "Fire" 

 OT: "Fire" along with most other recent subscriber skins has disappeared from subscriber resources.

 Thanks..

Anyone seen my gadget?

Sorry...

I know this is a "last resort" sort of thing, but have you tried restoring your computer to a time when the gadget DID show up?

There's an idea! I should have thunk of that!  Thanks, Karen!

When I first read the title, I couldn't help but wonder who could be having "Gadget Trouble"...

OK, so, can you help? 

Sorry, I meant to add that I'm looking into it.  I've never seen before, though.  You guys always come up with the oddest stuff...

Kill the process, then go into the registry.  Navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Stardock\MyColors\ElementFire\Weather and change the 'xpos' entry to something like 300 or so.  Re-run the gadget, and it should be back on the screen.  Props to Shirley for finding this one.

Thanks for the help,that did the trick.   The position was -171. Someone give Shirley a hug. You guys are great!    

P.S. Thanks to Richard Mohler for looking into it for me also.

Alright!!!   Hooray!!  Way to go support!!  

You spelled "beer" wrong

    for Support!

aww comon Shirley you know a good beer calls for a nice hot slice of pizza..

Oh, I'm not complaining.  I like a challenge. 

Thanks HG_Eliminator, I know what's for dinner now

Just as a point of info, this should work the same for any theme, just look for the appropriate name in stead of "ElementFire"
