OMG is it out yet?

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH WHERE IS IT. Ah there we go, feel slightly better now. Is it June yet? (*JOKE*)
Not to rain on the big paying for a beta parade here ... but I thought I would quote the sentence mentioned about the preorder/beta ... [quote]Since people have been asking for more, so here are a couple more screenshots of the upcoming ObjectDock 2.0. You can gain early access to the beta by pre-ordering.[/quote] Now, I would like to highlight the *early* access to the beta part. Does this mean that early payers get access to beta first ... then a week later *everyone*
Its only 6 (uk) pounds!!!!! Its the price of a burger meal or something. Amazingly cheap for a clever and probably very good piece of software.
Hi, Just wondered if anyone knows if there is a program you can use in Windows 7 which allows you to specify programs so that the icon will display in the system tray instead of on the taskbar. I used to use a program called 'TrayIt' but this not longer works nicely in windows 7. Just wondered if anything in the stardock portfolio can do this, or if anyone knows of a program to do this. Cheers.
oh dont suppose you could fix a couple of other programs? World of warcraft in windowed mode the min/max/close buttons seem to be in a "different place" to where the graphic is for the button (pressing min could max the window or do nothing at all for example depending on the skin). I have to have it on the non skin list :( Google Chrome - the min/max/close button mouseovers don't make the buttons glow (not the end of the world, but you know) Also, Microsoft Virtual PC 2007, when the P
[quote]does it have icons reflection?[/quote] Yep, you can see it in the screenshots :)
did it just this month somewhere .... wooooo hoooo we've been waiting years for this! YAY.
ooOOOOOooooooooooo I think this is good news ... with dock support for the system tray added in NexusDock, might not need object dock ... "As for the systray support in Nexus docks, the only reason I haven't added it yet is because I am busy doing the new User Interface for the NextSTART component of Winstep Xtreme and I MUST finish that first (WorkShelf's new User Interface with multi-language support is done already in 9.11 Beta 5, by the way). The next ver
Apologies for the bloated comment. System tray support in a dock would be absolutely fantastic (and I would buy the extreme for it and quite happily just run that module). This is wonderful news. (I have vented about objectdock in the wincustomize forums where I am meant to by the way, you start to try other places when no one listens though after a while, sorry about that).
Still doesn't support system tray icons as a dock? When will they do the real program we want a new version of - Objectdock plus! Fences is a bit useless because when you have windows up they are underneath, nexus doesn't have system tray support so you either have to have the bloated nexus extreme or your windows task bar still up. Come on stop wasting time on the ok stuff and do objectdock PLEASE.
[quote]A maybe completely dumb question : Does this also mean we will be able to use aero for per apps instead of classic ? I have this one business-essential app (PPS software) at work that crashes when WB is used and I try to resize a window within the main window. Works great with default aero though... [/quote] OH I just tried this, I was soooo hopeful, but alas, it doesn't display the app properly at all if you select one of the stardock aero skins :(
So just to confirm there isnt a version for Windows 7?
Ah, found out how you do this just if it helps other people, its not a tick box, but there is a slider. On 'Look And Feel' -> 'Explorer backgrounds' you will find an opacity slider at the bottom. Slide it to the far right, and if you correctly position the slider right at the end, the green colour does indeed come back on encrpyted folders! Many thanks for all your help, this was exactly what I was after.
Many thanks for the feedback! May I ask how to turn off transparent explorer backgrounds - cant seem to find a setting for that either! Thanks, Nyx.
Hi, Seem to have a bug in window blinds. Whenever I apply a skin to Windows Vista, I am no longer able to tell which files / folders are encrpted or compressed. Encrpyted / compressed folders should appear in green instead of black, due to the windows setting : Folder Options -> View -> Show encrpyted or compressed NTFS file in color. If anyone has a solution or tick box that I don't know about in window blinds to force files/fo

Hope that 'Free Area' skin comes back, it was looking very promising.
Well, I actually managed to pay for mine using Paypal, and then it didn't manage to redirect back to stardock in order to give me my download link, lol. So I have a nice useless receipt from paypal, and nothing at all from Stardock. Seems like they got a lot of bugs to fix ATM. Also says a 2 day wait time on Stardock sales email auto-responder.
Just to warn people outside the US, the payment system isnt working ATM, it takes your payement and then doesn't give you a download link. And 2 days response time via email, they have an auto-responder set up. :(
1) I would like to see Object Dock improved (and before you shout, make it part of object desktop!) Desperately need Object Dock 2.0, its IMO the best product 2nd to Window Blinds. And on Object Dock I would love to see you be able to put the text next to the icon so you could create an actual taskbar (rather than just a task bar with icons which is useless if you have 2 folders that look the same). 2) Window FX : Get it working properly with Vista. Thanks.
Hiya, One of the latest updates in the last few months of windows blinds has rendered window blinds useless to me, and Im missing it loads!!!! In Office 2000, if I apply the 'do not skin this app' setting to MS Access 2000, multi line text boxes that scroll downwards, only scroll the last line's height worth of text down, and basically makes a big mess of the text. If I don't have the 'do not skin this app' setting, when I scroll down a multiline text box, I get an out
[quote] do not know the structure of SDC but it seems to me that as a company you have managed to roll out numerous new games and other products but left all of your "already paid up" OD customers treading water.[/quote] Have to agree with that point!
I do what afaust does :)
I found 2 problems with the full version. First of all you lose you balloon tip popups off system tray icons - only way round this I have found is to make the system tray a doc in a similar shape and size and position to the windows one, then hide the windows taskbar and your pop ups appear in 'about' the right place. The other problem is naughty companies who draw their icons manually like nVidia, means that you cant see some icons in objectdock tray.
