Yes it is possible !!

you have to right click the "object bar" text and then edit behavior! There is an check box called "use active Window text"

#99306

Is it possible to change ONLY the "object bar" and "desktop " text to finder so that it still shows the titles of all other active windows. ;)

#99311

Yes i think this is also possible, i remember some screenshots of "crni" with "osxp" titled instead of ObjectBar !! but don´t know how to work it out....

perhaps i can figure it out this afternoon and post it here! Or crni reads this and tell us how to work it out.

changing the ObjectBar text is possible with a hex edit...

i've already made it, download it here (right click and select Save Target As...) :)

about changing Desktop to Finder, i don't think it's possible :/

[EDIT] i succeed changing Desktop too (Y) same link...[/EDIT]

How do you edit the "desktop" title: OB takes it from Desktop folder label (editable, yes, but I don't think it's a good idea, coz it's a system folder)?

it takes everything from the active window, nothing is related to folders here...

the desktop window doesn't have a title, so OB must write something by its own when the desktop window is active. that string is the only thing i change in the modded ObjectBar.exe, it doesn't do any harm :)

thx a lot localhost, i've been searching for the way to do this for ages...

now objectbar has exatly the same behavior as the real mac os X top bar! (Y)

damn with this & you're iTunes mod you really making me happy :wub:

#99409

Yeah, ok: you're right, but can you tell me exaclty where I can change the string (by ResHacker): my version of OB it's newr than yours!!

Thanks

#99411

I have the latest version of ObjectBar (1.6) and it works fine with me!

@localhost: Thanks for the patch, this is one FANTASTIC add-on. I have been figuring a way to do this for AGES!

p.s. One thing I will say its probably better to turn this into a tutorial as this patch is a modified version of a registered ObjectBar and those with a trial version will therfore get a registered version, which makes this a 'crack' which aint allowed on Aqua-Soft I think this site gets enough legal attention :P

#99443

Hey, localhost! Thanks for this patch! You know me, I hate reshack ^_^

#99500

whoa.. I have been wanting this for the longest time.

I wasn't expecting anytihing when I asked but :woot: it IS possible.

THANKS localhost!!

#100230

It works like a charm, thanks a lot!

#100747

Could you tell us which things in the .exe you reshacked?

#100762

I think it was hex-edited not reshacked. ;)

#100867

Well... whatever it was then. :P:P I got my objectbar off of object desktop and my .exe is newer than his.

#101037

I don't know much about Hex Editing but I think you have to do is to open up the exe in hex edit, search for the string and then replace it with finder. -_-

Thou it's probably not as simple as i make it to be :(

#101060

LocalHost, can you please update this to the newest version of OB? :rolleyes:

#175989

i've already made it, i'll post it soon ;)

#176451

#187841

It works like a charm.
