ObjectDock 1.1

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

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.


works like a charm. Thanks!

Now if you can only get Visual Studio 6.0 the skin correctly

Ok. Idiot moment. I do remember seeing that option. It was late. I hit panic instead. LOL.

It's too bad that it has to work in conjunction with the Always on Top setting. I finally can use a dock on the right of my screen without it interfearing with my fullscreen window scroll bars, but it I set it to always on top, I won't even be able to use the scroll bars at all.

OH well.

might show up in another update, I don't see why they limited it to only those two, but I never use win+d either

One little glitch in the newest update. When you mouse over icons in the tabbed docks that are close to the top the icon image edge remains on the tab until you click on another tab. But as soon as you mouse over another icon it does it again.

I've been playing with the Maxthon browser. When you move your mouse pointer to its tab bar you can use your scroll wheel to move through the tabs. That would be a very cool feature to add to OD+. Then you could access anything on your tabbed dock with just one click Another thing a skinner would be able to do is make a background that has "hidden" tabs since you would not need to click on them

Is anyone else having this problem;
With standard docks, when I set the Z order to always-on-top, the dock background sometimes shows in front of the icons? Didn't happen with the beta version.

How come when I fire up Stardock Central it's not picking up OD 1.1 as an available update?

How do you actually load downloaded themes into ObjectDock?

Look under Misc in SDC for ObjectDock Plus updates.

How come nobody's complained about OD still not having a lock dragging for the tabbed docks? It's so annoying when you accidentally drag something off and it disappears. I think now 1.1 makes it go to the last place in the row if you drag it off the dock but it doesn't always do that. They have a lock dragging for the object dock why can't they make one for the tabbed docks?

And the problem with the tabbed docks losing its place after screen resolution change has NOT been fixed for me. I'm using version 1.1.510 plus
