Hi,

Here is my problem. Hope someone can help me.

I'm trying to put IconDesk into a LsBox.

The Box itself is working fine but nothing is shown inside this Box.
Any Idea how to add the Desktop Icons to be shown through IconDesk (Or DeskFolders)?

Any help is appreciated

Hmm, if you don't really need it for something extra special you shouldn't use LSBox anymore it's simply too old and abandoned. You can simply use xLabel instead.

And... you can only "hook" modules (in LSBox or xLabel) which support this feature. IconDesk and DeskFolders doesn't support this feature.
Sorry

Thanks very much for your reply.

So, I'll need to rewrite completly my new theme :( (it was entierly based on LsBox).

To go quicker with xLabel, do you have some exemples showing how to implement IconDesk into xLabel?
and some basic questions about xLabel: Does it implement features like Drag n'drop?

No, you don't have to change your theme. You can still use LSBox, but if you start making a new theme you should use xLabel instead of LSBox.

You cannot implement IconDesk in another module, IconDesk doesn'`t support this feature! IconDesk can only be displayed on your desktop.
If you want a simultated Explorer Desktop you can use clickonic instead of IconDesk.
You can download all the recent modules at http://www.ls-universe.info

xLabel supports all features you can think of and some more. Just look at the docs http://xdocs.ls-universe.info
