Another Desktopx 4 beta has been released. The standard and the professional version have both gotten the same updates This build focuses the feedback that has been recieved after the initial release last week.Post anything that looks odd. Make sure to give us system information like your OS (including 32 or 64 bit), and if it's hard to explain (or even if it isn't) a screenshot.
The DX Object that comes with DX works. How, I don't know.
If you try to modify what that object does you will break it though on Vista and 7. You also can't create one like that one is made.
This is true and it boggles my mind how it works. An identical one I made opens Documents.....hmmmmmm......
It was a bug. It'll be fixed in the next release.
In case nobody noticed, the new build of DesktopX fixes a lot of reported bugs. Thanks a lot Alberto (and other people that woked and are working on it)!
I'm still seeing the size limit bug (and the crash on showing properties). There should be a RemoteUrlCrash.dxpack file attached to the bug that shows the problem.
As for the high coordinates problem, it no longer happens in the current build (either with a single object or with the gadget that exposed the problem). Another unrelated changed must have "fixed" it cause it always crashes on DX3.5 (I just tested it again to be sure).
Excellent! Thanks Alberto!
sViz loves the explorer style custom files dialog
Not sure I see anything different there?
?
Yeah, now I see...it is different now. Nice!!
Thanks for posting that screeny Zu.
How do you even reach this dialog?
In builder mode:
Right click any object and choose properties. On the summary tab, there is a button at bottom right, custom files, it opens an explorer window to choose a custom files to embed. This is how one would say, embed a font.
There's the little sucker! Thanks
Little bug- every time I unload DX my wallpaper changes from Fill mode to Fit mode.
Me too. Irritating as hell!
- Not reproduced: layout/font issues with script editor and object browser
Am I the only one that get that stupid Bangshe font when I use the Script editor? I've have that on ALL computers I've tried running Vista or W7...
Ohh! Is that what that font is called? I thought that crossed out W for a backslash was some kind of glitch. Yeah. I get the same, and I've heard others do, too.
Object browser font is fine here.
Me too...dangit!!
I'm not sure what the issue is with the object browser - not something I've mentioned along with my reports of the script editor font.
I'm only aware of the script editor font issue. Which would not be an issue if the propery page that let you set the script editor font would remember the setting.
I wonder if that entry in the changelog refer to this issue. Seeing how we're quite a few people affected it's odd if it can't be reproduced.
Is it just me or is the object list now stuck always on top of all windows?
Ya I'm also seeing that. XPHomeSP3DTXStandard
i need to start messing with 4.0 but i want to keep 3.5 so i can go back to it easily.. im sure its out there, but can someone point me to a link or post that shows me how to go back and forth easily?
thanks.
How to run DX 3.5 And DX 4.0 "side-by-side" (you can't have both of them running at the same time though)
What about archiving? Haven't tried it myself (I forgot to set this before I updated to 4) You can set Impulse Preferences to archive programs before updating. Then you could always restore to an earlier version.
VirtualPC?
