Hmmm, most odd.

Horoscope has it's own theme file in themes, is it that causing a problem?

OK determined that func when applying theme has wiped all colours from config files. All are missing colours.

All widgets are default white.

Don't know why that happened.

I made a new theme 'Silver' to set shades of grey and white. When I applied it, the widgets all defaulted to white.

I copied colours from a backup and placed them in each config. Clicked apply and all is well again. It even applies 'Silver' theme now. Very Happy

Horoscope has given me an idea. i will do one for Moon phase, so the moon icon is always white.

Awww, I'm going out. Everything's going wrong.

Different computer, no changes. Click on desktop, widgets vanish. Click on desktop, widgets return. ??? What the ???

Convinced now there's a bug at work in either 1.9.9 or RC2 .

Two machines updated to 1.9.9 and both exhibiting strange behaviour.

Both load two analog clocks, but unless you realise they are stacked on top of each other. Drag top one across to reveal second.

If i click remove analog clock from pwidgets active window then apply, it will remove both analog clocks, no problem.
Then when i select analog clock to add, it also opens theme window.
Close that and use up arrow and it opens theme window again.
Both pcs do this.

Hi guys

Tv working fine on lappy with the '#' at line 30 in ~/.pwidgets/plugins/tv/functions.

Had an issue with 'Mail' not following theme. It helped once added the pdingo bat '2' in frontand altered the colours but still strange, appears it should be ok OOTB. Confused

Rob, why did you gravitate back so quickly? Laughing

Even posting in the rc2 thread. I just avoid that place. If I have abug I 'll report it but I couldn't be bothered reading that thread. If the bug is already reported too bad, let 'em tear strips off me! Cool

Cheers!

HOWTO updated, old info removed from main post, weather howto added to main post.

Rob, why don't you write a 'Mail' HOWTO, post it there (see my sig for link) and I'll paste it in the main post. The idea being, all howtos for pwidgets are only a click away.

Trio, if you can think of anything to add, do it.

Cheers.
