Looking for something???????

OSx icon bar

Saturday, July 28, 2007 by kase_master | Discussion: New Users

Im looking for something I saw on a computer I was working on in my shop a few months ago. It was like an OSx icon bar at the top for like easy links to document, internet and other things. It was all the way accrossed the top of the desktop and when you moused over any of it it would come forward and then move back out as you moved to the next one. Im just looking for that task bar if you will. If anyone could help me out that would be great.

Sounds like " Object Dock "

Look in Object Dock Gallery at top of page for the link to paid and or free version..

Of course I could be totally wrong and therefore will get whipped with a wet squiggle again..

But Object Dock doesnt go all the way across top so I doubt thats what your looking for..but you might want to check it out anyway...

it will go across depending on the initial size you set it to, at least on the free version I can set it about 48px and it covers across the top

Yeah, I've had days like that...when I wish I hadn't gotten out of bed. Just yesterday I mistook hair gel for shaving cream; conditioner for shampoo, and shaving cream for deodorant....all that before getting to the breakfast table.

Naturally, I too was concerned about my breath....foregoing the brush after breakfast for fear of confusing the missus' tube of hair colouring gel for toothpaste.

Thank goodness today got off to a better start...touch wood.

Years ago...my old Triumph Spitfire...it has a radiator style cap for both the radiator and the oil filler.....it was early....I noticed my mistake as I was about to top up the water with oil....then thought 'Oh God...where did I put the water then?"

I had.

Took a bit of work to flush the sump......

I can imagine. Sorta reminds me of my mechanically challenged father a few years ago. Feeling it was getting too expensive to get his car serviced professionally, he got all the stuff to do it himself at home...and all went well until the oil change. He began to wonder why it was taking so much oil after about the sixth quart or so....forgot to replace the sump plug.

Phew, never thought of that....thank goodness we got a separate bathroom and toilet. Just as well we keep the insecticides and household cleansers elsewhere, then....like um, mistaking the Brasso for toothpaste....YUK...and surface spray for deodorant might just smart a little.

as a helper if you look at this link at the bottom is a bar like what im looking for i just want to be able to put different links in it. Just basic stuff. Internet, My computer. My Documents. I know I could just put the damn icon short cut on my desktop and just be happy with that but I would rather it look cool.
