Lots of new stuff..
Tuesday, January 11, 2005 by Frogboy | Discussion: WinCustomize News
ObjectDock & ObjectDock Plus 1.1 are now available! ObjectDock is a freeware program launcher and task manager that is highly configurable in how they look and feel. ObjectDock Plus adds tabbed docks, multiple docks, fly-out menus and other features.
New in ObjectDock / ObjectDock Plus 1.1:
- Zooming tabbed docks (icons in tabbed docks can now zoom).
- You can now always resize tabbed docks from corners
- Can now run on limited user accounts
- Supports WinKey+D now (show desktop no longer hides ObjectDock if it's set to always on bottom or top)
- Unicode support
- Multiple language support (see files in \lang directory)
- Standard docks adjust themselves properly on screen resolution change.
- Auto-hide sensitivity options added for standard docks
- Folder menu items with &'s in them now supported
- Many other minor tweaks
Download ObjectDock 1.1 or upgrade to ObjectDock Plus 1.1 at www.objectdock.com

This has happened to me with every upgrade of OD+, anyway to prevent from losing all your work? (I'm just too scared to upgrade now!)

I just downloaded the newest version, via Stardock Central, and it installed a whole other OD/OD+ into a new directory (Program Files/Object Dock). My other (original) one is still located in Program Files/Stardock/Object Dock). The new version is still showing the same apps and tabs as the original one, but icons and dock skin are all different now.

I went back to SDC and uninstalled it from there. I'll try again after uninstalling my current version.

When you have your docks configured the way you want, save them as a theme. The updates do not delete themes. If you want to be extra careful, make a copy of the theme folder so if it does get emptied you can always replace the contents.

Right-click on the calendar, choose configure. You can change the image from there. New image should be a png file.

Losing the theme always happens when You quit ObjectDock before updating. Never do that. Same happens with RightClick btw.

I like the zooming on the tabbed dock but I do wish we had the ability to control the size of the zoom.

This is great! Finally I can Win+D key back to my desktop and still use OD+!
here's another great irony: I'm so glad I payed for OD+ seperately! My Object Desktop Subscription just recently ran out, but I can still get this update because it was a seperate purchase.
imagine that...someone actually thrilled to have had to buy a seperate license.

Very nice =D
I still would deeply appreciate the possibility
to use different icons instead of regular tabs as "tabs".
Keep up the good work

doh, I'm kinda dissapointed thats the "zoomed" tabbed docks are so limited, it's nothing like the normal docks which really magnify it and affect the surrounding icons, this just makes the single icon you're on get about 4 pixels bigger 
still, it's better than it was and i'm mucho more happy

PROBLEM:
I just set up a normal magnify dock and Win+D made it dissappear.
The tabbed dock stayed, which is cool... but no the the normal dock.

don't worry yet, go into dock settings under "general" and click the "advanced options" button, the option is in the very first check box, also it only works on docks set to "always on top" or "always on bottom". So make sure that box is checked, the dock is set to either always top or bottom and it says it may require a reboot to make changed settings take effect =D
