My object has 2 states. There's a different picture for each state.How do I remotely change the picture for each state keeping in mind that each state has a different picture assigned to it.I have tried:DesktopX.Object("myob").State("state1").Picture = "mypic.png"DesktopX.Object("myob").State("state2").Picture = "mypic2.png"but that did not work.Am I missing something? Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thank you.

What I want to do is make the shortcut configurable by the user so that the user can set t...
