Had a crash with both Build 214 & 217 but, not when I built a gadget from your widget. Was copying over top of previous build's. So when I deleted the old version folder & the gadget cache folder (each time) then build's 211,214 and 217 all ran perfectly.

Same happened to me. Starts minimized, then crashed. I compiled a gadget using the controller object and had the same result. Then when I went into your main script and edited the paths you had, basically just change forward slashes to back slashes then it works. Strange behavior because it should bring up an error about the script paths and not crash.

Here's a better calendar script. [code="vbscript"] Option Explicit Sub Object_OnScriptEnter canvas.width = 200 canvas.height = 200 DrawCalendar() End Sub Sub Object_OnScriptExit End Sub ' Three Sections Month/Year, Weekdays, Calendar Days Sub DrawCalendar() Dim ctx<br

I'm going to work on creating or more accurately adapting the Bar Chart Script (that I mentioned in the forum a while back) into a function. The basic function should be easy, the only issues I've experienced have been parsing csv files because of essentially no standards. Wouldn't the live object reflection be possible already? Set up a mask object then draw a gradient with one color being transparent and import the image into that object. Also, I would think you could easily

You create one object with two states. See the picture in post nine. You can rename states or enter a new state name when you click the add button.

By the way that's the way XP came by default for me and has nothing to do with DesktopX. I've had a number of different apps ignore my previous settings and reset to that. The only reason I can think that it uninstalled like that is most likely because of the last theme you used. Most moderate computer users would've have figured this out without going off on a tirade.

Concepts, Maybe a bit harsh but, when someone creates a comic book bestowing how great something is even at a beta level than expectations are going to be high. Java's up to date and I did a reboot and that fixed the tab issue. I'm still not seeing the speed in general but, it is definitely fast on the Web 2.0 sites.

[quote]It's in beta so ofcoure it's not going to be very pretty or usable and definately not skinnable, yet anyways. Give it some time.[/quote] On the GUI side I would agree but, most of the their own hype was on how usable and stable the it is. Yes, it's stable but, far from usable IMO. Not to mention it intermittently crashes when I close the last remaining tab. As for the claims to low memory footprint I'm not seeing that. If their goal is towards web based apps than they s

Could you clarify what you're looking for? Because if you mean accessing the DesktopX api then I don't think this should be openly accessible via the command line for obvious reasons. If you mean to pass arguments than someone posted a work-a-round using WSH somewhere in the forums.

Edit: Ignore below as Littleboy's way is smoother but, I'm leaving this for other potential ideas. The easiest way I can think of is to break it into two animations. Animation1 being frames 0 to 55 Animation2 being frames 56 to 145 Depending on your animation settings then you'd do something like this: * Note I haven't tested this [code="vbscript"] ' Animation Image, Frames, Speed, Command Object.SetPicture "Animation1.png",56,100,&H00000001 Obj

Works great! :D Just did a basic run with one of the calendar scripts. Have to update them anyway since I seem to have left the month out. ;)

I don't think it does as this is why I use object overlay's. A refresh object command would be a nice option but, using a timer triggered on focus might do it.

You're welcome. The scripts are the least I can to do help out. ;) [quote]Can you point to me what exactly is not working correctly (and how it should behave)?[/quote] When you load the Navigation script, the cursor should change to hand when you mouse over the left/right edges (10px) then when you leave those regions the cursor should return to default. I even tried scripting x,y with the mouse enter/leave functions with the same effects. Actually, I think this may

Nice work. Did a couple of calendar scripts which clarified the need for text like you said. Guess it depends on how interactive you want things. Not sure if I borked something or it's how your plugin works but, scripting the cursor seems to be inconsistent. A good example is the navigation script within these three scripts I uploaded [color="#008080"][B][link="http://www.box.net/shared/gxlfo8rsn7"]Click me, you know you want to![/link][/B][/color]

[quote]For axes names, ticks and legends, you really want to be able to draw text. Using DesktopX objects to achieve that would be kind of tedious, especially if the graph is built dynamically.[/quote] Agree it would be tedious if done manually but, using the parameters from the canvas it could be done through cloning. You would just need to make sure the calculations were relative to the chart/canvas size. Of course it would use more resources depending on the graph. I'll loo

[quote]After fixing a few more things, I got charts working today. The lack of text support makes it a little bit less useful though.[/quote] Since you'll have the x,y positions for the chart anyway could this not be done with an external mouse over object? Something like an image map if that makes sense.
