then what's the point of this feature?

I was thinking about a cool feature... maybe you can add a checkbox to give as caption of the start button the nickname of the current user ... Would be cool
So your script has to check the name at each signin using the SignIn evenement.
This is a simple line of code
var StartMenuCaption := Messenger.MyName;

See you

How about checking at each name change . Also asking your Nickname do you want to change StartButton Caption or not.

Nice Script, but sadly the theme i'm using doesn't have a start button caption .

Setting your nickname as the start button caption could be kind of cool, except I think the start button can not change it's width so the string gets truncated after the first 4-6 characters.

PS - Tried to check this just with my acount and the script is doing anything for me now I've got the new updated version

it can't auto-resize itself no, but it can be sized using MoveWindow and stuff.

Thats cool then if it can work. I always used to think it was an image until I found a program that did it. Makes you wonder why MS put a function in to change it

They didn't add a function to change it, they just made it text rather than an image so that it can be changed for different languages.  Its just changed using a standard Windows API function, SetWindowText.

stays there for about 30 secs then goes back to start

good script though
