OD Plus - "Next" icon
Sunday, July 1, 2007 by ama02 | Discussion: Docks
I have filled up one of my tabbed docks with icons, and added a couple more icons/apps. I thought I would get an arrow icon to scroll to the next page of that tab, but I'm getting the default ? icon. I'm using Nuage background by Webgizmo, and I see the arrow png inside the folder. How do I get them to show up?

No, this must be the ini file, maybe his "link" to the "next" image is incorrect. I'll go check.

Yup, check this out...
As you can see, the link he provides is not the same as his nuage redux backgrounds folder, the link is to his previous Nuage docks, he forgot to change this ones.
You can change this by going to his nuage docks folder in: ProgramFiles/Stardock/ObjectDock/Backgounds/NuageReduxTab2 and open the background.ini file, at the bottom you'll see this:
[Extras]
PlusImage = Backgrounds\NuageTab1\Plus.png
MinusImage = Backgrounds\NuageTab1\Minus.png
Just change it to:
[Extras]
PlusImage = Backgrounds\NuageReduxTab2\Plus.png
MinusImage = Backgrounds\NuageReduxTab2\Minus.png
And restart OD and you're done!

yay! Excellent detective work J.Aroche! I will do that when I get home from work. I'll also PM Giz and let him know.

Okay, I just checked and I don't have any folders called NuageReduxTab1 (or 2 or 3)...and I don't have the skins in same directory as you. I'm running Vista Home Premium 32-bit, and when I installed OD, all the backgrounds were installed in my Username\Documents\Stardock\Backgrounds\..
Should I change the ini file to show that whole pathway? Or does this have to do with the Vista "run as administrator" thing?

I don't think that should be a problem, but then what's the name of the dock you're using? You should have the NuageReduxTab2 folder in your Username\Documents\Stardock\Backgrounds\ folder then. Or maybe you renamed them??
If you find the folder there, do the same as I said in the previous post, you don't have to include the whole "link" what I wrote still applies because it just reads the backgrounds folder, not the entire computer.

Yay! I finally got things fixed! When I installed ODPlus, it created a folder in my Documents directory (Documents\Stardock\ObjectDock), which had a sub-folder named Backgrounds. I looked in the main Program Files directory, where the ObjectDock executable was, and saw that there was already a Backgrounds folder. 
I also noticed that there were three sub-folders inside that...Tabbed, Non-Tabbed, and Tabbed-Only. Anyway, I moved all my downloaded background packs to the Program Files, and edited the ini files to reflect the sub-folders...and now they are all working fine. Thanks to JAroche and Webgizmo for your help!
