OD 1.6 Beta Bug Reports
Hiccups on the path to greatness...
Monday, April 2, 2007 by CerebroJD | Discussion: Docks
Well, we're now into the beta testing phase for the popular graphical shortcut and taskbar replacement, ObjectDock! However, with all developement, there are growing pains as well. Its best to get them all gathered together here in one place, where the developer can pop in and keep us all up to speed on changes and fixes.
Without further ado, I declare this thread open for business!

I tried running OD as Administrator and still get the same error.

JMB1984 - Thanks for the advice, but no luck. I reinstalled 1.50 and it works fine, so something that changed between 1.58 and 1.59 is causing DockShellHook.dll not to load.

I have 2 od+ icons in the system tray. No big deal, Just annoying.
The program keeps closing for no apparent reason. I don't get any crash reports. It just simply disappears from time to time.

rustyram: it sounds like somehow there are two startup thinks to ObjectDock. can you check that out? try for example going in to ObjectDock and turning off "run at startup" and when you reboot see if it still comes up or not.
thanks
thanks

cepheid: Vista or XP? x64 or x86? Thanks
v1.9 (rebranded from v1.6...there was just wayyyyyyy too many dramatic changes hah) will be available on Stardock Central tomorrow. Hopefully this doesn't exhibit the issue you were seeing / we can find a solution.

One thing I've found with the final 1.9 release is that the dock disappears completely while you're in Flip3D. Is there any way around this?

jtherrien: unfortunatly I'm pretty sure there's a way around that :-/ Show Desktop I'm able to work around even though that does some certainly goofy stuff...but Flip3d is at far lower level than i can reach. Though, for tabbed docks if they're not always on top and you have them set to show in the taskbar, I think that they'll show up!

Why all backup themes are located here >> C:\Documents and Settings\_my_username_\My Documents\ObjectDock Library\Backed Up Themes (v1.9) and not here >> C:\Program Files\Stardock\ObjectDock\Themes (v1.5)?

Darken: Because in Vista, the Programs Files folder can often be completly locked down, by default. As result we've been forced to move settings to the user's data folder, and wanted to go with consistent behavior. I figure better to put this information in one place that is accessible vs. hidden away in an appdata folder.

Only one minor issue remains, and that is task switching from the dock taskbar sort of half works in some cases. By that I mean that the application is select such that shortcut keys work (e.g. in Opera pressing crtl+tab displays the list of open tabs) and it is displayed as the current application when pressing alt+tab, but the main window is not brought to the front. Seems to happen both on XP & Vista this one.
