Hello scott,
About the Media player not closing after sound file is finished...
I haven't got a clue, but if you find out, please post the steps needed! I
took a look at the filetypes area under Folder options, ad I don't see any
item that one would toggle to have it close after finished, but perhaps I
missed something.
On your frame around the clock...
I turned on my TaskBar clock and set a frame around it with the following
steps:
(Note--the built in functions JFW3.3 offers will do the same, and won't
clutter up the TaskBar, and doesn't need a frame. Is there some benefit to
using your third-party clock utility?)
1) From the Desktop, press Tab until you are on the TaskBar.
2) Hit Insert+Numpad dash twice rapidly. You should hear
"InvisibleCursor."
3) Right arrow over to the beginning of the time display and hit
Control+Shift+[ to set the left boundary of the frame.
4) Right arrow over to the right edge of your time/date display and hit
Control+Shift+]. This will set the right boundary of the frame and place
you in the "General" dialog of this frame's properties.
5) Type in a name for this new frame, such as "DateAndTime," without the
quotes, and without any spaces.
6) Tab down to Description: and type in a short description of the frame,
such as "My TaskBar date and time frame." (This isn't a necessity, but it
is a good habit to get into.)
7) Tab down to the field, "Save in Frame file:"
Here, I believe, is the problem you're having. This field has two items in
a list box; the first item is the currently active application's frame file
name, (which in this example would be "Explorer,"), and the second listing
is "Default."
Instead of typing in the filename, just arrow down until "default" is
highlighted and hit Tab to move to the next field, where you'll assign it a
keystroke.
8) Once in the Keystroke assignment field, hit Insert+F12, and if you get
the warning message that this keystroke is already assigned to another
function, tab once and select "Ok."
9) Hit Control+Tab until you reach the last dialog named "Real Window."
10) Clear the "Name:," "Window must contain:," and the "Frame must
contain:" fields.
11) Tab to, then whack Enter on, the "Ok" button.
That should have your frame set correctly around that date/time display, but
I still recommend letting the JFW internal functions do that for you--that
is just one less item you'd need loaded on startup!
At any rate...hit Insert+F12 and see if you get the desired results.
Hope this helps, and if anyone can add any further suggestions, please fell
free to jump right in!
Thanks,
