Umbraco This package will create a DataType called “True Color Picker”.
You may be wondering, what’s “True” doing there?
Well I was looking for a color picker without the need to provide pre-defined colors.
I saw the built-in Color Picker, but that’s not a color picker! It’s an approved color picker.
So I create a TRUE color picker.
This package will create the following files / directories:
/umbraco/css
colorpicker.css
/umbraco/js/colorpicker
colorpicker.js
/umbraco/images/colorpicker

Asp.NET,
C#.NET,
IIS 6 The last weeks am employee of one of our clients and me had some problems getting a project, I’ve build, running on IIS 6.
There was a website configured in IIS for the main webapplication, which was already running on their server, and my project would be placed in a subdirectory of that webapplication.
So I deliverd the project with the following files:
- Aspx pages
- A bin directory
- Stylesheet directory
- Images directory
- No web.config, because the root application already has one
We just couldn’t get it to work properly and I thought IIS was caching assemblies, even after a IIS reset and server reboot.
After some time someone found the problem; the assemblies in the bin directory cannot be placed in a subdirectory, if a website isn’t configured for that specific directory. So we placed the assemblies in the root webapplication’s bin directory, and it worked!

Vista,
Windows Usually when I set up a remote desktop connection I was able to share clipboard information between the server and the client, but for some reason it didn’t work anymore.
After some search I found out that it has something to do with ‘rdpclip.exe’. Some websites suggested to restart this process, but the problem was ‘rdpclip.exe’ wasn’t even showing up in my process list.
The trick is to add this executable to your startup folder in the start menu. The file ‘rdpclip.exe’ is located in your System32 directory, e.g.: C:\Windows\System32\rdpclip.exe. Now you’re able to use the clipboard again with remote desktop sessions.

Software,
Sound,
Windows I recently bought a new A/V Receiver, which supports digital audio via two connection types: optical and digital. So I connected my laptop via spdiff – optical to the receiver and the receiver was receiving Dolby Digital perfectly.
There was only one problem, I wanted to send stereo sound via Winamp in 5.1 signal too. After looking around the web for some plug-in, I found ATSurround. This plug-in can upmix stereo to 5.1 / AC3.
Just download it from free-codecs.com

Vista,
Windows,
nVidia I recently had a problem with Windows Vista and the nVidia display drivers:
When I logged on to Windows and the dual monitor settings were set correctly (19″ display as primary display and the laptop display as secundary), Vista would reset these settings, setting my laptop display as primary, my stand-alone display as secundary with a resolution based on the laptop display (1280 x 800).
Then I found a fix for this issue, changing a register entry:
The key is in HKLM\Software\Microsoft\TMM, called
UseIViewHelper and it’s value is 1. Just rename this key and reboot. The problem will be fixed!
