Samurize - How to display the amount of items in a folder?

Guest

Hello guys,

I am relatively new to this deskmodding thing and I started to try out some things with Samurize, actually it works good but I still have one problem.

I want to link some folders to my desktop. I think this is not very difficult, I just added a text meter and activated meter linkage to the destination folder.

Now I added a graphic file, it was no problem. But my problem is that I want to see how many items are in the folder which is linked on my desktop.

Example: I want to create a text meter with meter linkage to my icon folder. I edit the text file to display the folder name and then add a graphic file. How can I make the text meter to display that there are for example 35 folders and 856 items in the icon folder?

I hope you understand what I mean, additionally here are some screenshots of good modders who know how to do that, maybe this will help you:

It would be great if someone here could help me! Sorry if my english is not very good, it's not my native language.

Thank you!

I think you should try AVEDESK.^^ It's awesome.
