unique folder icon in 'taskbar' portion of dock
Monday, November 30, 2009 by ericwilmoth | Discussion: Object Desktop
I've been looking all over, trying various tricks, but have yet to find a way to get open folders to display the unique icons i've already assigned them. To clarify, i've assigned unique icons to many folders; those icons show fine for the shortcuts ObjectDock makes, but when i open a folder, it shows a generic open folder icon. I've tried altering it's dock entry properties and assigning it a unique icon, but it simply changes the default icon for all open folders, thus not accomplishing the goal of being able to distingish one open folder from another at a glance; even if this did work, it would be one major pain in the ass to have to assign each open folder the icon i've already gone to the trouble of assigning through standard means.
Please tell me there is a way to get folders to automatically display the icons i've already assigned them...or that this will be a feature upgrade in the next version.
Incidentally, i am using Plus, vs. 1.9

There currently is not a way to do what you want it to do. Hopefully the developers can add this as a feature in a future version.

That's not a bad idea for a feature. I'll submit it to the ObjectDock developers for their consideration.
