I exclusively use the Start search menu to start apps. However, for some reason most apps do not appear in the search result list. For example: I enter "Internet Explorer" in the search box and no apps or shortcuts are displayed, even though Internet Explorer is pinned to my start menu. (Outlook, which is also pinned, does show up however). I en

Vista sidebar always crashes when I insert or remove items from the USB ports, and is generally buggy. Is there a way to replace Vista sidebar altogether with something like DesktopX (or any other ObjectDesktop product) that would be able to replicate the Vista sidebar's functionality? Thanks!

[quote]We're working as quickly as we can to get our software working on as wide a platform as possible. Like Zubaz said above, we have to do a certain amount of triage on our rather long list of products to determine which to update when, and for what platforms. And it's very difficult to give estimates or timelines, since something always comes up. In general, if we say "Product X" will be released sometime "next summer" and then some major event comes up that pushes back development, w

Hi, I've got the latest Objectbar 2 running on XP Home and I've added a "Various-Function Item", with the command "Popup Real Start Menu".

Thanks for any assistance in advance.

I've been having this problem with setting the Icon Font Size for years with WindowBlinds. Now that I use 1920x1200 resolution I simply can't use Windowblinds anymore since it resets the Icon Font Size to 8 point size on reboot. Is there any solution to this problem? Thanks in advance...

I have a suggestion. Make specific windows semi-transparent no matter what other objects/forms cover them. Example: While you're waiting on a form to finish an action, you can see it's progress as a semi-transparent window in the background of whatever you're working on.

Suggestion for DesktopX objects: It would be very useful to have objects appear semi-transparently no matter what other objects/windows covered them. An example would be a clock that would appear as a silhouette in the background of all objects covering it, making the time always visible.
