Finally, after a totally clean install of ObjectDock, the menu function finally works right!


Which menu function?

I've been using kkmenu, but it just isn't fast enough for me. Can OD now treat folders as menus/submenus all on it's own?

The click-and-hold thinger. I've never been able to get it to work until now.

When I'm running Media Player in skin mode, I cannot change the icon in objectDock since I cant right click on the icon in the dock. Is there a way to change this manually?

object dock has such potential - but it consistently crashed my (relatively new) computer, and after some frustration I finally, reluctantly, gave up on it.

Were you getting any sort of error messages? What kind of Docklets were you running (if any) ? Were you using alot of objects on the dock?

only docklet I had running was the clock and less than 10 objects on the dock. I tried it with, and without, the taskbar function. No error messages, just a blue screen reminiscant of windows 98 (using XP) that says something about a physical memory dump.

Ouch! Try uninstalling ObjectDock, rebooting, installing it again, rebooting, then running it.

wassup i downloaded object dock onto my laptop but it is not operating properly. this is hard to explain but ill try my best. it seems that each icon is sectioned off so wen i roll over one icon the others disappear or get cut off. i dont understand why. i downloaded it onto my desktop computer at home and it works fine. i tried many things on my laptop to try to get it working properly but i still havent found a solution. if someone has any ideas or hints as to wat can be wrong with it. thanks

How about changing the zoom mode from wide to narrow, or vice versa?
