ObjectBar sorts Quicklaunch icons by name

Wednesday, April 7, 2004 by blazer380 | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

Q#1: How do I prevent ObjectBar from resorting my quicklaunch icons alphabetically.
Q#2: Everytime I reboot, my quicklaunch gets resized to one size too short, so an arrow appears to see the only one that doesnt fit. I resize it, and each reboot it goes back to smaller size with the addition of the arrow.

well. i fixed my own problem.

A#1: I just put a 1 through 9 before the names of the items, so that way it sorted them by #
A#2: I checked the following:
Display Tab: Visual Style for this section: Checked Combine this container
Arrangement Tab: Resizability : Unchecked Allow...
Insure all items... is ed
Size item to fit content... is ed
Unchecked Allow multiple rows and Set item height
Behavior Tab: Unchecked - Make popup volatile
Extra Options Tab - Unchecked Allow Max Size
Unchecked Use popup arrows

Rebooted PC, and it works now

You shouldn't have to do that. I should just remember how you place them. The order of the shortcuts is recorded by OB in the following registry key:

HKCU\Software\Stardock\ObjectBar\MenuOrder

For some reason everytime I rebooted, they would get rearranged alphabetially... So I had to do it the way i did it...
