Resizing width in Tabbed dock
plus a possible solution to the SYStray icons not showing
Thursday, May 15, 2008 by Xiaman | Discussion: ObjectDock
I'd love to know how to resize a tabbed dock. anyone got the knowhow?
Also, i know for a fact that XP only Creates one set of System tray icons. so you need to hide those first.
A possible fix would be to hide all the systray icons from your startmenu. theres a simple registry hack to do this:
Put the next four lines in a notepad document, and save it as "anything.reg". then run it, and reset. If your startbar still doesn't work, and you want to reset this value back to normal, just change the last charicter to a 0.
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer]
"NoTrayItemsDisplay"=dword:00000001

Resize how? Make it bigger (icons too). Size and appearance on ObjectDock Properties, change the Icon size up or down, that will make the icons bigger/smaller and the dock bigger/smaller also.

Objectdock Properties, Icon size, up or down that'll change the dock size also.

Well, the whole mousing around the window thing isn't working. also, seems that my system tray isn't working in Objectdock. reset a few times, and tried a few things(installed the old system tray icon workaround).
Also, anyone else find the easter egg in the about section?

for the record, if your icons are locked, you cannot resize the dock. i think they should be two seperate options. i no longer have objectdock plus, but would love for this to be implimented for when i get it again.
