I planned 3.0 for customizable and more function whci choosable. Who can help me about this one? Ohhh yeah..

I'm searching for guys who plays JavaScript and able to make file-checking script for more slideshow pictures without any problem. If you're one of them, please contact me.

Looks good so far. Waiting for a 1600x1200 and 1280x960 version

Also the ablility to customize links such as notepad, cmd prompt, etc. would be cool.

[Windows X]

If you want, resize it match with other resolution (bar size = 150) and sent me these registry

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Desktop\Components

My moniter can't do refresh over that resolution.

Supported resolution: 800x600, 1024x768 and 1280x1024

Please send me other working resolution by mail if you can help me.

how do u change the pictures in the slideshow?

[Windows X]

Go to Windir\SideBar\Slide now it fixed for non-resized images.

[Windows X]

Now I finished redesign SideBar code and make it like this. The problem is it looks a bit spaceful in 1024x768 because I want to keep it suites with 800x600 Should I remove 800x600 support for more options and looks better?

1. Image is dead.

2. Maybe you should design the whole thing in Flash. Flash does have an API to save little bits of data and that would be great for the notepad.

[Windows X]

I never work for flash or java before. this drive me sick for the first release of sidebar. anyone can?

[Boggit]

WindowX: Is there any way to use the sidebar without the highlighted border popping up when you mouse over it?

[Windows X]

What do you mean? :/

[Boggit]

when my cursor goes over it, I see a grey border surround the sidebar (first a thick grey one, then a think grey one), can you disable this?

[Windows X]

That's active desktop resizing bar. Can't ya

mmm .... Your sidebar does not look too much customizable...as a Longhorn alternative i would recommend SmartbarXP at www.smartbarxp.com....or another one using the .net Framework technology Codenam: Longhorn at http://uploadtestjc.tripod.com/cgi-bin/fra...e=dashboard.htm

They take more RAM...but at least they are much more real...

[Windows X]

Sure. That's webpage engine. Can you expect more from it if you could do?

You don't have a clue what you are talking about. There is no .NET framework technology codenamed longhorn. Come on...post something intelligently.

Longhorn is the OS, AVALON is the UI presentation...which is what the sidebar is built from.

"or another one using the .net Framework technology Codenam: Longhorn"

The sidebar named "Codename Longhorn" uses the .NET Framework Technology. You can download it at http://uploadtestjc.tripod.com/cgi-bin/fra...e=dashboard.htm

needa be clearer?...or is it too difficult?...did i hurt your intellectual capacities?
