Winxp 64 Issues
Monday, May 23, 2005 by Gibbz | Discussion: ObjectDock
I tryed out object dock in winxp64bit, it all seems to work fine except the systray icons do not work on the dock!
Is there a fix comming for this soon?
Also wanted to know if theres going to be a fix for steam in the system tray? Some other bugs ive noticed, when saving out a theme then loading it in(say after formating) it doesnt remember some settings, mainly the disabling of screenshots to replace icons in the dock, and also i use bouncing "attention" affects and it keeps reseting them to glowing... These are both rather anoying....

That's why I'm holding off on Win64 for a while, and I also have to shuffle around some of my hardware to get all the stuff with 64bit drivers on the same computer. Kind of annoying, but I expect we'll see some nice performance boosts on the 64bit maya and photoshop

Do the authors of OD visit these forums? hope they make a 64bit version or at least make it compatable

Another XP64 issue for the record: I noticed when displaying the TaskBar in a dock, Explorer windows don't display, unless they were already open when OD+ was started. Programs will display normally though.

Daxcois, did you have the same problem as me with the system tray?
Id really love to see that fixed asap, even if they just released a patch for x64 support/fixes....

Gibbz, I've had no luck with the tray either. I've seen a few other 3rd party apps that are supposed to replicate tray icons that don't work either.
Likewise, I'd like to see support for x64 as well whether it's a patch, or a full 64-bit port.

x64 support is on the list for the future, but I don't have a date yet.

Nakor,
Thanks for the news! Is that x64 compatability, or a full 64 bit version?

Still waiting for Iconpackager but Windowblinds works fine although it installs itself in the program files x86 folder by default. Guess its half and half 32 and 64 
It is a good Idea, get all your 64 drivers before switching to Windows x64, I still have about 4 devices that I have to wait for the drivers to come out.
