DX Widget Manager and Gadgets

from WinCustomize Forums
I don't know if this is a bug or what. I have the Silica Stock Ticker Gadget running on my desktop and it shows up in the Widget Manager, which is accessed by right-clicking on the DX Widget icon in the systray. The bug or what is when I highlight the stock ticker in the loaded widgets window and click on configure, nothing happens. Also when click on show all, minimize all or hide all, nothing happens. When I click on unload all, it is unloaded.

I have noted two problems with the silica stock ticker gadget. First when I restart it, it saved my stock symbols, but it doesn't save its desktop position. Second everytime it is re-started, I have to re-allow it net access through Nortons. I don't have this problem with the other netcentric DX stuff I run and Nortons.

I'm running the latest version of everything that ODNT offers on WinXP Home with SP2

ZZZzzz.....

I know why at least on this one. It's because when you run the *.exe file it expands into a different temp area everytime causing Norton's to think it is a new app trying to gain access to the net. This is the same problem Natural Desktop had when it first came out and _martin_ fixed it. So there is a way to fix this annoying bit about the Gadget.

The other one....I still don't know.

The problem with different temp directories was fixed internally in DX, so it's not a gadget related thing.
