a program executed only in the 1st desktop

Postby lllllllllllllllllllllllll » 07.10.2006 15:52:19

hello

i have a program ("raineter"), which displays network trafic, quantity of free memory, time, cpu usage etc...

this program doesn't appear as a window (in fact it is considered by windows as a processus only) so when i switch to an other desktop this program doen't appear any more.

i tryed to display it with the "losts" objects in the "desktop windows" menu but it doesn't work

how to resolve it?? thank you

Hi lllllllllllllllllllllllll,

your name is a pity. :D
Open "wechsel.ini" in your main Dexpot directory, add the following line, save and restart Dexpot.

wechsel.ini wrote:RainmeterMeterWindow=sticky

:dex:

Wait, did you really wait six years for the answer? :giggle:

Anyway, with Dexpot 1.6 you'll probably want to use the new "Assign applications" feature. Just pick your program from the list and assign it to "all desktops". You may have to restart the application for the setting to become effective.

If you still want more information about the wechsel.ini file, check here: [FAQ] What is the (my)wechsel.ini file capable of?
