I'd like to build a Widget that could look inside of a Powerpoint presentation and "read" the presenter's notes and scroll them seperately in a widget window. I'd appreciate any ideas on how to approach a problem like this and break it into actionable steps.
I recently built a shortcut object that calls Silica Picture Frame as the .exe program. As for arguments, I specified an image. The first time I called it it worked well, but every other time I call it, it opens with the same image, even when I change the argument. Am I not calling the program properly? Is there a different way I should be calling an object from an object?
Never mind, it helps when you spell things exactly as specified. Works like a charm, Thanks.
Hmmm, does it matter that I'm working as a shortcut? Do I need to be as a different object type? I cut and pasted your code into the script column and defined the "Front" and "Back" as directed. The front looks right but I'm unable to get it to look like the back. It does, however, execute the directed .exe command. On a different note...your Desktop X properties tool looks a lot different than mine. <a href="https://www.stardock.com/products/sdcentral/" title="Posted via Stardock Centr
OK, I understand the Front/Back portion, but where in the object do I specify what images are Front and Back?
That really works well. Now if I can just figure out how to do that for myself. I appreciate the pointer, Thanks.
Any ideas where I can find that?
Two different images. I'm not certian how to do an animated .png flip yet. But I'd like to learn how.
I'm trying to build a widget that looks like a playing card. When clicked I'd like it to change to look like the other side of the playing card. So far I have the back of the card, the cursor changes when I mouse over the card to the hand, but how do I then get the card to show the face image? Once flipped over how can I get it to flip back?
I'm the newbie at this stuff...I did a search but I'll apologize in advance if I'm repeating a question that has been previously answered. I have built a simple widget that finds a specific jpeg file and displays, via the associations with the Window's picture viewer, the image full screen by double clicking on it. In the mouse off state it has one image, in mouse over state it has a second but slightly different image. Once clicked the widget is then hidden by the Windows picture viewer. What I
