Zubaz hates that it will be release "today" and that "today" is 24 hours long and that gives them 16 hours before they miss the deadline

You can change the font color to whatever you want by going into the background.ini and editing it to the color you want using RGB colors


Now THAT's a welcome bit of news! Thanks, WG!

Ah well, no virtual desktop docklet. Can someone from Stardock please just put me out of my misery and tell me whether there are plans to support this or not? If you provide a tool to replace the taskbar then you should implement all the taskbar's features - especially your *own* features (BandVWM). You've done so for ObjectBar, so why not ObjectDock?

Otherwise, OD+ is a solid product and I very much wish to use it fully. Thanks.

Stardock Central. Make sure you have the "prompt me when there's new stuff" option set, because the prompt often finds new software where the listing still shows the old stuff (in my experience).

Jeff B, you ARE the MAN! This release even fixes the hangup issue I've had with emptying the Norton Protected recycle bin!!! New per-icon backgrounds look nice, and a bunch of other new tweaks too, I see.

No plans in the near future. There is an SDK if someone else wants to do this.

Is there documentation on sdvdesktops.dll? I'm guessing that this also used by ObjectBar for it's VWM support so I'm hoping it's possible to wrap this into a Docklet using the SDK.

It's involving backgrounds - a deadly-simple new skinning feature that totally has gone overlooked, and just happens to make a good bunch of existing cool backgrounds *totally rock*!! Brand new kind of ability not available anywhere else! And all it takes it an few extra lines in their ini. You'll see what I'm talking about tomorrow afternoon


i must be missing this...updated from sdc. shows 1.90.026. click on about od and it says 1.60 plus preview. What's that? Couldn't find what he's talking about, anyone find it?

BUG!!!!
the weather docklet in 1.9 dosen't work for international cities.
I tried sydney, Australia, or Melbourne, Australia, none of them works!

Why? Only some Major international cities? BTW, I tried Shanghai, China, dosen't work either...seems worse than weather.com
