ObjectDock questions
Wednesday, July 9, 2003 by FieldDoc | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
2 questions.
1. I have the recycle bin on the dock but I wanna get rid of it from the desktop. How do I do that?
2. How do I add a icon on the Dock that will let me log off/restart?
Thanks,

1. "Tweaks and Tools" has that option http://www.nextgenerationtools.com/index.html
2. There are a few free apps here that you can link to from OD, that will give you access to the restart/shutdown dialog, the startmenu, the run dialog, but I haven't found one for the logoff dialog http://www.tsoftcentral.com/tools/

Once Active Desktop is activated your desktop icons should all disapear. But I simply do not remember, as I use Desktop X now, which has a built in function for hiding desktop icons.
Also I belive you want to just hide your recycle bin, am I right? Well my way gets rid of everything (if it works at all
However, if you want these instructions for the registry mumbo jumbo, [email protected] me.
