Sunday, March 27, 2005 by bsommer109 | Discussion: Docks

hey all,
I am new here and Dld objectdock, it is awesome. I am just wondering how you guys get the tabs on yours. I dont know what its called but most of you have like different tabs saying games, music, windows ect on the top. i have seen them yet dont know where to extract them or how to get them working. So, does anyone know how to get these tabs so i can have sub catagories!!!
Also, some of you have things on your desktop that tell the time , date , computer usage ect and i was curious on how to get these too? any links/help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Brad

Only Object Dock Plus (not the free version) will have tabbed docks. I highly recommend it. I haven't used my start menu or taskbar in months.

https://www.stardock.com/products/desktopx/And Probably a lot of the things you are talking about with time, date, etc are DesktopX widgets or objects, get the program hereLink Calendars with ToDo lists are Rainlender skins...a free program here

Also check out the Sysmetrix website, link at the top of the Sysmetrix library...it is a free program, and check out AveDesk, do a google search, it is awesome...hope that helps ya some

I don't use bootskins so I can't help you there.

Once you install Sysmetrix you'll find a "Themes" directory under C:\Program FIles\Sysmetrix unzip the contents inot it't own folder under themes. If the contents includes a file with an smx extension you can just double click the file and it will automatically install the theme. Right click on your Sysmetrix theme (the one running) and choose "Sysmetrix COnfiguration". There you will find a list of themes to choose from.
