You have true, objects desktop are draw by AES.
As I know Teradesk is fully compatible with a background manage by the 
AES, I use it for some years now in MyAES. The only restriction is 
Teradesk have add userdef on object 0 of the desktop object tree, it is 
better for AES not force background with this sort of desktop object 
because there is some incompatibility with application such as Jinnee 
that redraw icone name with object 0. In Teradesk case there is two 
solutions:
- change background for color 0 and pattern 0, save and relaunch Teradesk
- force to not redraw the object 0, in Teradesk case userdef is not 
usefull, it was add by the author to be able to redraw its simple 
background rather a beautifull picture under MyAES!
