LsDesk v.2.2 - Different Themes Thread last updated on 2004-07-01 22:57:38

How can I have the icons change positions when I switch the theme. The information(of where the icons are and text color, etc.) is in modules.ini, but I want different settings for different themes. I already tried pasting everything in modules.ini(about LSDesk) to theme.ini, but that didnt work. How do I change the settings for an individual theme?

Or can you suggest another module? I already tried LSDesk v.2.2, nexDeskIcon v.1, and the latest version of xdesktop. I have Windows 98se.

I cant download it from loose-screws, it downloads some other theme. What's another module site that has that version?

Nevermind, I found it at shellfront.org

None of the settings I put don't take effect. Here's part of my theme.rc file :

And addind IconDesk infront of some of those doesnt make a difference. It still doesnt work.

How do I get My Computer and Recycling Bin on the desktop?

Posted by member 57005 on 2004-07-01 22:57:38 link
