What has changed?

from JoeUser Forums
I have been able to create many new desktops for personal use only, but all of a sudden, I am unable to get into the graphics aspects of the themes. I have several I made for myself, but I can no longer get into the parts of the themes to edit them. What has changed that prevents any type of personal editting?

With the latest version of DX....right-click on the icon in the systray and change it from standard mode to authoring mode to be able to edit objects again.

I have done that. I like to work with certain DX themes that especially appeal to my style and sometimes I have to resize for my screen and I need to take some parts into photoshop to do so. When I had a theme on my desktop it would put that theme into a file where each graphic component was visible and editable. But, now it will not let me get to the individual components. It no longer puts the theme I have on the desktop into that file where each individual graphic used in the theme becomes accessible and editable. This is probably confusing, the way I am explaining this, and long winded, I am sure.

I know exactly what you mean. The images for current theme would be in the DesktopX\'user'Theme folder, but recently that changed. There's nothing in there except mysterious files. I really miss not being able to tweak the graphics to my liking. I would make several versions, and Export them as seperate widgets. Now that ability is gone.

I don't even get the 'mysterious files'. Mine is just plain empty.

So, Koasati, did you survive the freeze?

Greenreaper to the rescue: "That's because it puts them in a more appropriate place, %USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Application Data\Stardock\DesktopX\CurrentTheme\"
