Hi,
I am running XP and have just installed Shock Desktop 1.53 (also tried 1.51). I keep getting ‘divide by zero’ error when I try to arrange icons to any shape.

Any ideas on a fix please – or if not is there any other software which will arrange desktop icons to geometric shapes please!

Cheers

Mark

[...] Windows only: Free application Shock Desktop caters to those who have their own idea of a perfect icon layout on their desktop and dislike applications (or people) that mess with it. After creating one or more desktop “profiles” with the taskbar-nested application, you can restore them at any time, regardless of any auto-arrange or grid alignment settings you have in place. The program also offers the ability to hide all your icons—useful for taking screenshots—and doesn’t have to constantly run, though it installs as a start-up application. Shock Desktop is a free download for Windows XP, 2000 and (at least on my system) Vista only. Shock Desktop [via Freeware Genius] [...]

It seems to work fine with Dexpot. The second functionality is handy because you can click the icons even if they are behind a window.

One very frustrating thing about the Shock utils is they now require registration and a serial number. I use Shock 4Way 3D 0.93 instead of the latest version because of that. I wish the author would change his mind and get rid of that.
