DX objects moving

Published on January 12, 2004 By DustyRoad In Stardock Software

Hope someone can help me, My DX objects move towards the top of the screen till they are off the screen every time i restart my computer. Also my layer objects that aren't suposed to be seen till I click on a button are all open when I restart. I have fixed the position of the objects and saved the theme but the same thing happens again. This all started after I updated DX from stardock central. My version of DX is shown as being 2.09[b].002. I'm running Win XP. If any more info is needed let me know.

Your update is the Beta version, just go back to a previous version that worked for you until the bugs are worked out of the Beta

I have also noticed some bugs in this Beta

yep sometimes the objects and icons feel that they are more important then what I am doing and jump in front of everything. At least when desktopx is running. It gives them fuel to fight back. I enjoy fighting so I feed them as often as possible

isn't that the truth hehe. Sometimes I feel like OD has pushed my puter one step closer to AI, cause they aint doin what I want them to do. I've just been updating and didn't think to save an earlier version. Stupid me. So does anyone know where I can get an earlier version to go back to till bugs are worked out?All I have is version 1.something that I installed at the begining. DX2 worked on my system till the last update.

in stardock central go to the file menu, archive/restore, and choose restore existing. find a previous version of dx and it should revert back to it.

kongit thinks you have object desktop but is not sure

Well, I just went there but nothing was in the list. I haven't saved any prior versions so I guess i'm just out of luck till they come out with a new update, and hope it fixes my problems.

It should automatically archive the previous versions. I had a problem a while back with a beta of windowblinds and was guided to that option. I didn't and still don't manually archive older versions, but they show up in that list. I am confused.

the objects just don't like you

nope don't like me one bit. But thats ok, they'll grow to love me

I did check the list again and nothing there. As long as no evil object apears and starts taking my good objects away, I'll just keep smacking them back in place I guess
