Objectbar help!

Thursday, September 23, 2004 by iangrushka | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

Okay so I downloaded Objectbar and I am IN LOVE. I just have one small problem. I have a program that requires me to right click on it (it would normally be on the icon bar near the clock, now it's kinda in the middle) but I can't right click on any of my icons

Is there a workaround?

If your OB has a right click menu of it's own, you can access the regular right click functions by holding down the control key and then clicking.

Oh... but i don't know if that would work in your case.  It sounds like a different problem.

I applied my old fave OB, and tried all the work arounds that I could remember and couldn't solve your problem.  I used to unhide the regular windows taskbar through theme tools (select theme options) and set it to auto hide on the opposite edge as the OB taskbar in order to run a problem similar to what you describe.  But that seems like a sloppy work around to me.  Probably someone will be along with a better answer.  

Don't give up on OB though.  It's a wonderful program and a new version is coming soon (I hope).

Yeah it's weird, the ol' Ctrl thing works for everything BUT it.. dunno what im going to do (It's daemon tools if you haven't figured it out)

Another thing is, how do i change my skin? I "built" my bar out of the default bar and put all my icons (startmenu AND desktop) in subfolders like "utilities" "games" but i found this green skin i really like it matches my icon/color scheme, but when i double click it i get all these crazy popups then nothing

If you have downloaded a skin and it is in your ob skin folder you can right click in the OB icon in the system tray.  There should be a menu item called load theme theme browser.  That will bring up the themes that you have installed.  If you don't have the system tray icon showing, right click on the taskbar, open the properties, and you will find the load theme browser in the dropdown menu under *files*.
