[quote]It isn't all that much about how good the spelling is.... but about how lazy and inconsiderate the typist is towards his target audience.

When "show prerelease versions" is unchecked, then you are shown the latest 'released' version. Is this an update to the latest beta? No. [edit] I see Lantec explained it much better than I, while I was trying to type it out......
Since you have a widescreen monitor, have you tried the "Reserve edge of screen" setting on the right side dock. This would prevent the browser from covering the dock. The dock would always be visible, and the scrollbar accessible.
[quote] It was the firewall all along. It was setup to allow FF through but whenever OD launched it, the firewall figured that something was up and blocked it.[/quote] Why didn't I think of that!? d'OH!!

[quote]The first time that you run od, there are a few docklets already there e.g My Computer, My Pictures, Internet, Email, Search Google, etc.[/quote] I see what you're talking about now. All but the Google item are shortcuts, not really docklets (even though they're listed in Docklets in the OD Properties dialog)................... confusing huh? ;) I'm sorry but I don't have a clue why this is happening to you. Never had this problem with OD Plus. [quote] I di
Just thought of something you might try. Go to C:\Documents and Settings\*USERNAME*\Local Settings\Application Data\Stardock\ObjectDockPlus\Settings.ini OptimizeDockForSpeed=1 If you can't see the Local Settings folder, go to Tools >Folder Options > View > enable "Show hidden files and folders"
Just tested it here, and I see no difference. One method is as fast as the other. Seems to be a few people having similar troubles lately, but long time users of ObjectDock aren't experiencing the issue.
[quote]Well, initially it was using the default internet docklet that comes with ObjectDock.[/quote] What docklet are you referring to? I'm not aware of any default internet docklet, or what it's for..... Opera is my default browser, but I do use Firefox at times. Never had a problem with either.
I never used the free version much. I wanted more than one dock, I wanted systray support. So the free version just didn't cut it. Then Stardock released OD+, and I've been hooked ever since! It's well worth the 20$ IMHO. :HOT:
[quote]You could try another docklet created by a user that leverages The Weather Channel (www.weather.com).[/quote] I guess someone already has created one (or more) ;). My memory is getting bad.....................
[quote]Is there anyway to use another weather service with OD?[/quote] Only if you (or someone) can create a new docklet that uses another service. ;)
Yes it works with WindowBlinds, but I'm not impressed. It places a button on the titlebar that shows 'sometimes', and when it does show. it's not pretty. You have to setup Hotkeys to use it. Bottom line....... it doesn't look all that 3D to me.
The common denominator seems to be AccuWeather, since CarGuy's screenshot doesn't show ObjectDock running at all. He appears to be using DX. I've never noticed the problem here. If you guys would list your locations so we could test them, we may be able to nail down where the problem is coming from.
Like Philly said, the tabbed dock is moveable (they can be dragged to anywhere, even placed in the center of the screen). It also doesn't resize automatically. The tabbed and standard docks are 2 different animals.

[quote]How can i create something like the windows 'Start' docklet but for the rest of my shortcuts that are on the desktop[/quote] You could right click the dock > Add > New Shortcut > in the dialog that pops up > "Link" Desktop (from the drop down menu) > check "Show folder in a menu". (But that's not really a 'Docklet' Docklets are mini application that work on the dock). [quote] is there a way to hide the windows desktop 'recycle bin[/quote] Other than right cl
[quote]When I download a new icon package for ObjectDock how do I get it to work with the dock?[/quote] IconPackages are for IconPackager, not ObjectDock. That said, any icon or PNG can be used with ObjectDock. Just follow Bebi's instructions. Sometimes IconPacks are in ICL format, and have to be converted before you can use them with OD.
[quote]Great thing, but does anybody else have problems with it not opening shortcuts ?[/quote] Not here.
50/50 when I checked. [quote]Thus, the Gematriculator provides only results that are absolutely correct[/quote] Inconsistent, but absolutely correct. ;p
[quote]I am using xphome sp2 fully patched and my defaulr browser is Opera.

[quote] I wish they would fix this somehow but I don't see how they can.[/quote] Perhaps by eliminating the redundant OD library in My Documents? ;)
You might want to try this one... ZipGenius I've had no trouble with it.
Tried to find EasyZip2000 to download, so I could see if it was doing anything odd, but I can't find it......... just a few deadend links. :NOTSURE: Got a working link?
You can change the icon in the OD Plus systray by, left click and hold, or Ctrl + left click. To add a docklet, you simply extract the contents of the zip to Docklet folder. I've had the systray docklet working with Plus (didn't care for it, but it worked)
jive01... I have 3 docks in the top position (on dual monitors), and I checked them all to make sure. No problem here. Perhaps you should start a new thread, and we may be able to help you figure out what's causing this. Back on topic. The Stacks Docklet ROX!
