Object Dock Plus - Docklets not all working
Thursday, October 14, 2004 by Just4Jane | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
I recently got the OD+ and am learning alot. It is a good program. The docklets included with it work real well, but alot of ones I have tried to install from WC, go no where?! Some work okay, but most don't even show up in my docklet list. Any suggestions what I am doing wrong? What is SKD?

Thanks, Essencay. Off hand, I remember one docket that has to do with mail notification...MAPI Email NOtifier. I will check out the comments. I have gotten "Power Off", "Start Menu" and "Run" without any problems. Is there a way to put access to a drive on a collection? I tried through the browse, but it did not work. The best I can do is "My Computer". I have 4 drives (2 internal, 2 external) and I am always going to different ones to get what I need. It would be great to have them listed in a collection tab. Any ideas?

Hiya...you should be able to just open up My Computer then drag-n-drop your drives onto the dock. As for the externals, while the total number you'd have connected at one time is showing in My Computer drag these as well. Then right-click on each of the new drive shortcuts and give them new icons thru dock entry properties. That way, on the externals, when they're disconnected and the link doesn't exist you won't get a big blue questionmark image and the dock will hold your shortcut image....I don't have any externals, so I can't try it out, but I'm pretty sure it'll work

Thanks once again, Essencay! This works great! I am learning and little by little getting better at understanding OD thanks to you and others. You're winner! Thanks for being so helpful.
