Desktop X widget can not display the words

Hello!
I opened the DesktopX software, then click the "Load Widgets".
Then click on the "Load Widgets.." button.
In the pop-up windows, in this location
C:\Program Files\Stardock\Object Desktop\DesktopX\Widgets

I double click the "Clear calendar.exe", it show the calendar on the desktop, but cannot display the day... (look at the attached screenshot)
Why?

I think this is because the font included into the widget doesn't support your default language. A several times I saw this not only on using DX widgets but WindowBlinds skins too.

You may correct this problem by easy way:
1. Open the widget in the DesktopX Bulder.
2. Find the text object that displays the calendar day and click on its properties.
3. Change the default font to the any similar that support your language.
4. Save the widget and run it once again. I'm sure you will see the calendar day after that.

Stardock should be make it selectable language.
Did you tried to adjust other language to widget?
Most of Widget(especially, Calendar) don't look nice with other language.

1. You may use any languages that supported in your Operating System. But only in the DesktopX widgets. If you will export them as a gadgets the only English US will be available in this case.

2. You may use any languages for creation the text objects or to display the text information in the DesktopX. But only if your projects will be saved as "DX OBJECTS" or "DX WIDGETS". And you need use DesktopX to run them on your desktop.

But there are a lot of FONTS that doesn't support any languages except English. So if you use the different language on your PC you may not use these fonts to display the text information. You need find any similar fonts in the internet, download and install them and then apply to the widget.
