MaStErHaCK's Curved patcher includes MUI files, try applying that.

I've tried this, but I still have the same problem. :pinch:

Guys, I have the sidebar without any gadget, now, How do I put them in into sidebar?

[The_Decryptor Veteran]

i like it, it runs ok (even on my system)

what i dont like is they haven't implemented auto hide functionality, i like how you can drag gadgets off onto the desktop, but if i want to leave some widgets on it, and set auto hide, i should be able to. :yes:

[The_Decryptor Veteran]

click the plus in the top left, then double click the gadgets.

Part script errors are a result of running Sidebar on a non-English locale system. To fix this, extract your part with compression software, rename \1033 to a valid LCID for your system (see below), and rezip/rename.

LCID chart: http://krafft.com/scripts/deluxe-calendar/lcid_chart.htm

Those that are unsure about their correct LCID can use the attached program (requires .net v1.1)

C# Source:

using System;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;

public class Nothing
{
	[DllImport("kernel32.dll", SetLastError=true)]
	static extern int GetSystemDefaultLCID();

	public static void Main()
	{
  Console.WriteLine();
  Console.WriteLine(
  	"* Current LCID: {0}",
  	GetSystemDefaultLCID().ToString()
  );
	}
}

LCID.zip

I did it, but that wasn't the problem. It was that: I didn't copy the "parts" folder into the users profile. Well, now it's solved. Thanks anyway

By the way, how do I turn on autohide?

Well... I got some of the hacked parts to work, like the run..

Wasnt there a windows media control to put on the sidebar?

Any ideas?

[GaMeDtX]

The sidebar shows up fine, but there is nothing on it. I click hte + button, but its still blank.

I have the sidebar.exe, the emu and xmlrw.dll files, and the 4 *.part files in a dir and it doesnt show any widget thingys in the sidebar.

It work...

But I can't curve it... :(

Follow the steps of this site:

4 and 5 are the steps that you need to do

Did you edit the .part in 'Default Part' or your %userprofile%\Parts directory? If default, you need to delete the part in your Parts folder and restart Sidebar

No, those steps are wrong. If the 'Default Parts' directory contains the parts in the Sidebar working folder, the rest is handled for you.

That's because you didn't follow directions before and the 'Default Parts' folder was either non-existant or was in the wrong folder. :yes:

I've deleted the parts in %userprofile%\ , but when I restart the sidebar to add the rss, searchbar and run, it also has the same problem :(

You'll need to edit each and every part the same way, except for the AnalogClock I believe. :rofl:

I got the sidebar to curve. Looks better. :)
