    ext:Desktop StartMenu title how to change it 

        <ext:Desktop ID="MyDesktop" runat="server" BackgroundColor="Black" ShortcutTextColor="White" Wallpaper="Imagenes/fondos/2-orange-gradient.jpg">

  <StartMenu Width="400" Height="400" ToolsWidth="227" Title="" AutoDataBind="true">
    I am trying to set the title, but its only working when 
     if (!X.IsAjaxRequest)
    is true...


    Is there a way to set the title of the StartMenu property within a DirectEvent ?

    I mean.. something like this... 

     this.MyDesktop.StartMenu.Title = "this is my user name logged!";

    thanks in advance!

    Hi,

    Yes, it's not updated during a DirectEvent.

    I can suggest the following solution.

    Example
    <%@ Page Language="C#" %>

<%@ Register Assembly="Ext.Net" Namespace="Ext.Net" TagPrefix="ext" %>

<script runat="server">
    protected void UpdateTitle(object sender, DirectEventArgs e)
    {
        X.Js.Call("updateTitle", new JRawValue(this.Desktop1.ClientID), "New Title");
    }
</script>

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head runat="server">
    <title>Ext.Net Example</title>

    <script type="text/javascript">
        var updateTitle = function (desktop, title) {
            var menu = desktop.getDesktop().taskbar.startMenu;
            if (menu.rendered) {
                menu.setTitle(title);
            } else {
                menu.title = title;
            }
        };
    </script>
</head>
<body>
    <form runat="server">
        <ext:ResourceManager runat="server" />
        <ext:Desktop ID="Desktop1" runat="server" BackgroundColor="black">
            <Modules>
                <ext:DesktopModule ModuleID="DesktopModule1" WindowID="DesktopWindow1" AutoRun="true" />
            </Modules>
        </ext:Desktop>
        <ext:DesktopWindow ID="DesktopWindow1" runat="server" Title="DesktopWindow">
            <Items>
                <ext:Button runat="server" Text="Update Title" OnDirectClick="UpdateTitle" />
            </Items>
        </ext:DesktopWindow>
    </form>
