There is no release date for the next beta at this time.

Just my feedback, and not sure if it's already been suggested:

It would be great if we could have a couple more options for tasks being displayed in the dock.

• Only show applications which are NOT added to my dock
• Only show MINIMIZED applications which are NOT added to my dock

This kind of functionality would mimic the already existing Windows 7 awesomebar, and I think it would be a great addition to the ObjectDock aresenal. I have 20+ icons in my dock, and I'm always hesitant to use the "Show only minimised windows" option, as I find it hard then to keep track of my open non-minimized windows.

Anyone else think this would be a nifty feature to add?

Understood, but is it at least being actively worked on?  Or has poor JB been moved back on Impulse again?  

Would like to know that too because something tells me that we won't see updates any soon.

And one more question: as soon as it's actually pre-order, may i get my money back and don't use 2 beta anymore? I don't see any reason to pay for such product yet and prefer to keep using another one.

Thank you.

Something strange here... Running Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit...

When I access Internet Explorer 8 from an icon on Objectdock 2 beta, it doesn't run flash on webpages.  But if I access it from a regular icon, it runs just fine.  I've even tried to open with OD2, then install flash, but whenever I close it and open in again through OD2 Flash will not run on webpages...

I don't have the information you seek. I can tell you that Jeff is always busy with multiple projects, though. That doesn't mean he isn't going to set aside time for working on OD+ 2 in the future. When specifically, though, I don't know.

Please ensure that the Internet Explorer shortcut isn't set to run IE without add-on support.

I would like more effects in the new version.

The free Ubuntu bar have beautiful effects, that this program yet do not implement.

(take a look)

There are a lot of dock programs for GNOME and KDE. Which one specifically are you referencing?

I agree!  The loss of standard right-click functionality to access "Manage" for "My Computer" and "Run as Adminstrator" etc. is a big loss. Please bring his back.

I totally agree with swwoodland about the right click functionality for accessing normal windows "right click" options.  This really sucks and I can't even begin to understand why anyone at stardock thought removing that function was a good idea.  This removal of a key function makes objectdock, no matter how pretty it is, a lot less useful for me.  There really isn't a point to having objectdock if you still have to look elsewhere for the actual icon just for the right click menu.  Also, although this new version does seem faster, options such as ghost mode seem to be stuttery and will probably require a bit of horsepower to make it look nice and worth using all the time.  The new dock settings is nicer in some ways, especially in looks, but seems to fall short in ease of use.  I noticed a few options that existed in 1.9 are now gone or tough to find.  As a whole, right now I'm keeping with the beta in hopes that Stardock releases an update to at least fix the "right click" menu function.  Otherwise, I will probably go back to 1.9 or ditch Objectdock all together.  Stardock...right now I'm feeling a bit ripped off. Even though upgrading only cost 10 bucks, beta or not, it should be at least as useful as the previous version and all you seemed to do was beef up the "pretty". 

I agree. Well said. I miss the right click functionality as well, and if not returned will find an alternative.

so all this time, are we going to get a planned feature list or what?  are we going to get any date estimates or what?  the complete lack of functionality in this new version of OD compared to others is ridiculous, seriously, functionality before making it pretty, thats how it should be done.  and from reading this thread it would seem that the 1 dev that works on this, is on another project now....so whats the point of beta testing this and reporting bugs and feature requests if it will be a year b4 there is an update, or some answers to the many many many questions that have been ignored?

i'll probably just go back to nexus dock, since object dock doesn't even come close in features or usability to it, and at least that is constantly updated

I just installed, 2 previous problems that don't seem to have been fixed (Windows 7 PC):

1 - The dreaded Windows Photo Viewer bug is still present.  If you have a folder of images open and double click one, Photo Viewer loads BEHIND the explorer window.  This problem only occurs when Objectdock is loaded, 1.9 or 2.0.

2 - Still can't use UNC share names as shortcuts.  Enter '\\' and the whole interface locks up for 30 seconds with each letter you type.  I shouldn't need to have shortcuts or mapped drives to every network share I have.  I haven't checked myself but I hope it behaves well if a network drive becomes disconnected or unavailable.

Nice though, keep up the good work.

I haven't got any answer yet so repeat my question: as soon as it's actually pre-order, may i get my money back and don't use 2 beta anymore?

di7ra - Please refer to Stardock's Return Policy.

Actually - I prefer the standard Windows 7 taskbar.

Only it's not a return but canceling a pre-order as here's no any OD2 yet but only beta with alot of bugs and lack of support. It's only a preview for those who's going to buy OD2. I wanted to buy it but i saw how developing is going to continue and have changed my mind.

I really think some feedback by the devoloper is in order... Same for DesktopX. 

If don't native 64bits  the 32bits soft work in protect zone

 and build svchost

 >> use more memory that if native 64bits

after if it amuses you have 50 process "svchost.exe"

not me
