labels for ALL icons.

Hi there, I've staring at avedesk on my desktop for a while and then just had an idea.... is it possible to have a small app that will allow attaching the nice label - under the icons, where the text is - on all windows icons ?

No.

- sorry, but that's it.

no way !

sad day to microsoft users.

Nope, but you can use an AveDesk module to convert all your icons to Pidlshortcuts, and then you can apply sublabels that way.

how do u do that?? ive dragged the icon-to-desklet.aveinst file into the avedesk control panel, but it always says that it needs the Pidl shortcut...so i tried changing the aveinst to .zip and inserting a copy of the pidl shortcut manually and then change it back to .aveinst, but i still had the same problem...

that's no good for a windows with 1000 icons...

True, 1000 icons is too many to use the module with. AppleThink, are you sure you have the right version of PidlShortcut?

hmm i dont know...can you attach the .aveinst file to convert my icons to desklets? i really am lost when it comes to avedesk because i only use it for avetunes, but this icon labeling thing is very very nice and i really want to do it...

Hmm, well it's called DesktopGrabber. Is there an Installable Packages folder with such a module inside?

-NC

#434573

yes. is that it? i dont want to mess anything up.

Yeah, just double click that file, and then go to Tools-->Modules. You may also want to try a few of the other Desktop modules.

well...that'll have to wait until my computer gets this whole overclock thing sorted out, but thx for ur help NC ur a great guy :D

Edit: well, i got this whole thing figured out, and it turns out my skin was corrupted :S hence messed up toolbars, etc. Anyways i tried the DesktopGrabber.aveinst, and it says connecting to internet and then it says download successful, but then it says "Error: You will need PIDL Shorcut for this" and then "The download has failed because the package is missing a certain object" or something like that. can someone post an updated version of DesktopGrabber.aveinst?
