PLease Can Somebody Help Me with My Questions?!
Tuesday, July 25, 2006 by LOCC | Discussion: DesktopX
Hello all here at WinCustomize, I just got the objective desktop and am a wee bit confused on how it works as of yet, i am an easy learner when tought, but I am lost on this program, I have found a theme and look that i have fallen in love with, it is the FLUX theme, i already am running it on windowblinds, but i saw this and i must say that i am very impressed with this whole look.
I am sorry that this is going to be such a Noob post, i usually try to figure this stuff out before i ask but i am stumped.
I would like to have my desktop look the "exact" same way as this one does below, icons, background, setup n' all.
#1. How do i get the middle docks like the ones they have here. I made a center dock but i cannot drag it to the middle of my desktop.
#2. WHere can i find those excellent icons that this person is using?
Any help would be great, again i am sorry for the noob questions.

Hmm, instead of using ObjectDock.. Why not create a "fake" dock using DesktopX and have it centered in the screen using a script such as...
Sub Object_OnScriptEnter
Object.Left = System.VScreenLeft + System.VScreenWidth/2 - Object.Width/2
Object.Top = System.VScreenTop + System.VScreenHeight/2 - Object.Height/2
End Sub
Sub Object_OnScriptEnter
Object.Left = System.VScreenLeft + System.VScreenWidth/2 - Object.Width/2
Object.Top = System.VScreenTop + System.VScreenHeight/2 - Object.Height/2
End Sub

You can get the dock away from the edge by opening the dock settings, then go to "Positioning" and uncheck "Automatic distance from edge". Then you can drag the slider towards "far from edge". The dock will move to the center of your screen.

Note: The docks seen in your link are "Tabbed Docks"...if this is what you want you need to purchase ObjectDock Plus, which I highly recommend.

thx for the help everyone, i highly appreciate it all!
unlike other sites you folks here surely want to help and fix the problem that people are having! Thx again!
One last thing and i'll leave you all alone for a while
If you see in that picture i linked in my first post, the icon of the Dell computer, the camera he used, and the logo under the camera, i looked through every page last night for those two and couldnt find them, any other suggestions you all have on how to get those?
thx again all, all is appreciated!!

These docks are for a program called ObjectDock Plus made by Stardock. ObjectDock Plus is not part of the ObjectDesktop suite.
The icons in the middle docks, are GT3 by tiggz. The rest of the icons I believe can be found here at Wincustomize under the Misc. Icons section, or the ObjectDock section. Links below.
