What's new in the DX 2 gamma...
Published on September 30, 2003 By Draginol In OS Customization

A new version of DesktopX is out. We've been working like crazy to get out the little buglets and make it more useful in a very apparent way. The big thing in the gamma can be summed up in stability, performance meter support, system info support, and multi-monitor support.

1.99 GAMMA

  • Worked on multimonitor support. Now IX works with multiworkarea so it can place icons on all monitors and behave correctly even when changing monitors dispositions, workarea, resolutions etc.
  • Added back Undo movement (will eventually add Undo for more things). It is in tray menu or activable with Ctrl-Z with keyboard focus on DX objects.
  • Fixed a nasty crash in Dgui. It crashed IX at startup and I bet other random things with text states in DX, mostly scripted stuff or text changed through plugins.
  • Fixed other two crash bugs with deleting and editing objects.

If you experience problems, please send desktopx.dmp and/or zipped \currenttheme\.
