Features? Products? Changes?
Published on August 18, 2008 By Zargon In Object Desktop

Planning for Object Desktop 2009 has begun and we want your help.

Got an idea for any of the products that are part of Object Desktop?

  • Looking for a feature?
  • Looking for a new product?
  • Want something changed?

This is the thread for you!

Hmmm, just getting really comfortable with the 2008 version.   

Since I've just started using Stardock Virtual Desktop can an option be added that you can set or control DX widgets and objects or even ObjectDock to only appear on one or mulitple desktops? Or to put it another way can the desktops in SVD be totally independent of each other?   

Is there any possiblity to be able to have 3D effects in WB or throughout the software programs. Maybe the capability to push or move open windows into the background and then bring them forward. I think this option would really work great within WindowsFX.

Just a couple of thoughts

It looks like SVD is not part of ObjectDesktop, sorry. (Or is it)

It shows up under ObjectDesktop on my system. And I agree that would be a great feature. I've fired up SVD a couple times but then not used it for long. I'd use it alot with that functionality.

Also I know there is a big thread (Here) with alot of great suggestions for ObjectDock.

Very true Bebi, but the option I'm suggestion would be in SVD to independly set desktop items by desktop.

Place adding new stuff to WB and SKS on hold, fix what is broke to the best of your ability.. start adding new stuff again.

Absolutely.

I do have a suggestion for WB: the Colorize section. If you want to recolor a skin that only has a few colored bits (Black by zer0, WTM, etc) the "preview" in the colorize section doesn't show *any* of the actual pieces of the skin that use color. It would be helpful to show ALL states of the taskbar buttons, since those are usually colored in skins, along with titlebar buttons.

Being able to change a specific color in an iconpackage instead of recoloring the entire icon would be nice.

Don't discontinue/forget RightClick would be my greatest wish.

A killer new GUI \drag and drop.. for skinning latest Windows Media Player.

PSD support for Skinstudio... PLEASE!!

Ability to take\make promotional screenshots of all main elements of a WB in a structured , complete fashion from within SKS.

Ability to click on a preview to navigate thru SKS instead of using tree. ( If not, re-organize\alphabetize treeview to be easier to navigate)

MSN Messenger skinning capability.

Fix framebuilder in SKS

An efficient bug reporting system for SKS\WB w\ feedback.

In DesktopX I would love to see an option to have all labels to be transparent, and to have it remain so when exported as a widget. Now when I make all labels magic pink so they don't show. When you export as a widget they come back....bummer. Also would love to see as much as feasilbe, some more built in scripts. Also, nicer clock hands, or a way to edit the default ones in more depth, rather than just color and size. How about the ability to import external images as the hands without all the extra graphic work. Does that make sense?

This could work well with the future release of Windows 7 and the touch screen. You could add features to work with how it is used in the touch environments. With additional features to make it work with other new features coming in IE8 and FF3.
