weather widget? those widgets that utilize desktopx?

weather docklet? those docklets added to Object Dock?


weather widgets, you generally run them and then click on the zip code and change to what you want

weather docklets are downloaded and unzipped and put in the object dock docklets folder. then you right click object dock in a blank area and choose 'add' and then the docklet. once it's added you right click on the docklet and choose weather docklet properties

I don't think the docklets from this site work on rocketdock, they're all made for ObjectDock.

ObjectDock Docklets do work with Rocketdock.

Search Docklets under Object Dock Category. Make sure you place the Weather Docklet in the docklets folder eg. C:\Program Files\RocketDock\Docklets\Weather.

Right click on any icon in the dock. Select Add Item Menu and The Weather Docklet should appear.

The ObjectDock Weather docklet doesn't work for me either. I have put the Weather folder in C:\Program Files\RocketDock\docklets. I added the docklet to RocketDock and it comes up, but there is no way to configure it. When I click on it no configuration interface comes up. When I double-click on it it takes me to weather.com.

That docklet was designed for ObjectDock, not RocketDock . . I'm not sure if it'll work the same.
