Hello, first let me say that this program is excellent. I do plan to donate if I can get these 2 issues resolved. Otherwise I will need to discontinue use because I can't fix my system issues.
1. In settings--> switching desktops --> desktop elements, I have separate wallpaper for each of 4 desktops. However, I have *disabled* custom screen resolutions (because I want to maintain one resolution among all desktops). Unfortunately, if I try to configure a desktop wallpaper, and click 'ok', dexpot still tries to change my resolution (and defaults to a horrible 800x600). I have tried to disable this many times, but even though I do disable, anytime I go to change my wallpaper the program tries to override my resolution.
2. If I do set the custom resolutions for each desktop at my preferred resolution (which is a workaround for the above), I cannot set 1280x1024x32x75hz, which is what my monitor operates at. It is not on the list of available resolutions.
If there is a config file that I can hand edit, or registry keys that I can change, please let me know. I have not investigated how the dialog boxes actually implement user changes in config files, I can do this myself if the dialog box coding has a bug.
I use windows xp sp2, and have a viewsonic vp930 lcd monitor. I use a leadtek geforce 6600 gs video card.
Thank you for your excellent work - Phil
