SideBar Gadget Multiple Instance

Postby DheerajP » 21.07.2011 01:03:51

Hi

I want to create the multiple instance of same desktop gadget with different configuration on each desktop.
For e.g I have "NOTES gadget", I want to keep different notes on different desktops
or Desktop slideshow gadget load wallpaper from different directory for each desktop.

Can anyone help me to make this possible. Many thanks.

The gadget plugin works only when windows is running but after system restart, all is gone. :(

And with gadget plugin we can have same gadget on many desktop, but they are just replica of each other. If you change something in one gadget that would be reflected on same gadget on all desktop.
I want same gadget on all desktop with different settings on each desktop. And it should work when system restart.
Kindly assist.

that's right.

I've created (not copied) separate instances of gadgets on each desktop. That worked fine for me.

Have you changed the settings of each gadget instance? Does it not reflect to another desktop/s also?
