ObjectDock always on top at startup
no matter what the settings are
Wednesday, April 8, 2009 by Castle | Discussion: ObjectDock
I am using the latest ObjactDock Plus on Windows Vista Home Premium 32.
I have it set to show the dock as a drawer at the top of the screen with mouseover activation. Everytime I restart my PC the dock stays on top of everything else but the settings have not changed in OD properties. The only way I have found to correct this is to select the "Tabs always on top" button and then deselect it. However, this must be done with every restart. I have uninstalled OD Plus and reinstalled but the problem still exists. Is there a setting I have overlooked or is this a known issue?
Thanks in advance for any insight.

I have a similar issue. (OD+ on Win7 64 Ultimate) My docks simply wont autohide at any time unless i enter dock properties and make a change. Then the dock autohides, but then when i use it again, it stays on top till i mess with the settings again. I can have "always on top unselected and it makes do difference.
No combination of the dock properties get it to autohide..not even autohide.
SD, is this a known bug for Win 7? If so is there a update in the works, as this is very annoying.
Edit - Oh my...the Op was some time ago. oh well.

Open ObjectDock
Go into troubleshooting options.
Under system tray and taskbar check both items
See how you go
This also fixes a problem I had opening My Computer etc on the desktop. I had to double clck the shortcut twice to open.
