Impressive work.

Do you know what the problem is with the trashcan? It has not displayed the true status of the recycle bin for many versions.

this was already leaked.

just so anyone is wondering, here are the changes from .86:

· you can save your settings as a theme. either just the theme itself (saved as an *.ini file in the "themes" folder), or package it as a redistributable theme file with the extension: *.objectdock
· settings window now more closely resemles the real dock's settings window in that the settings are distributed in the window thru tabs (appearance, dock contents, more appearance options, performance tweaks.)
· less memory usage

thats basically it from what i can tell. the about dialog does say .87 beta, but here on wincustomize.com, they say its .88. guess we'll just have to wait till its publically released.

anyway, doesnt seem to be any speed improvements. and there still arent any menus implemented as in the other docks. thats the only real issue i have with this dock. aside from that, this is a great release, even tho leaked.
kthxbye

I don't care about the themes nearly as much as I care about how low that memory usage is in the second picture!

Wow! About 1/4 of what it's ever used on mine!

Just one question : Will ObjectDock appear in Stardock Central under 'Free Stuff' ?

To answer Jam_UK's question about shutting down - make a shortcut to shutdown.exe and put it on the objectdock. For the options that go along with it, look under windows help
