Not sure, I have a pager in each screen. As I said before, each screen handles it own sets of virtual desktop. I think, in order to have I pager for all screen AND all virtual desktop it would end up being a huge cube os virtual desktops!!! I'm complaining about this, though *wink wink devs* > > Oh one other thing I forgot.

If you go to control panel -> screen -> screen lock you will find, in the 'locking' tab, a checkbox that sais 'use custom screenlock command'. Did you try it? does it suits you? I don't know about any gadget (widget) that can do what you want. Actually, now that I think about it, a REALLY nasty solution can be using execwatch. I think you can configure it to run a command con middle click, but not on 'delays' (which would be what is intended for). A really nasty hack, but maybe it suits you. You could create a shortcut as well. Go to control apnel -> keyboard shortcut -> click on the 'add' button and hit the shortcut you want. If it's free it will add it, if it's not, you will go to that option. On the right panel you can select 'launch, execute' with you command, so everytime you hit your shortcut that exact command will be launch. > > Thanks, You are welcome =) > Marc > Wido ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ LogMeIn Central: Instant, anywhere, Remote PC access and management.
