Hi there,

new Release of my WidgetDock is online. v2.9b will fix some bugs and add some new features. This release needs Yahoo! Widgets 3.0 (or later) to be installed.



download WidgetDock v2.9b and WidgetDockMod v2.9b from www.siosae.de

Features:

New in v2.9b:
- changed tooltip for the items (add the items name)
- hide the widget manager icon, so you can open the manager window by clicking on the "manage widgets..." button directly
- opacity for the wheel button in the context menu
- enable the use of program icons again
- fixed bug on closing the widget manager with its icon shown in the dock
- fixed bug when selecting new destination of lost item
- fixed bug preventing the widget to load on mac os (hopefully)
- fixed bug inside the drag & drop feature

New in v2.9:
- commandline options for programs (via context menu in the widget manager)
- resize cross and manage widgets button with the dock
- fixed bug on screen position change after resize dock
- fixed false icon glow if a not found icon is left of clicked one
- fixed cutted cross and "manage widgets.." images
- fixed another switch screen position bug
- fixed cross/wheel - dock behaviour (e.g. rotation)
- fixed bug adding folders with certain names to dock while adding all widgets from a specified folder
- optimized performance of function "add all widgets from specified folder", a lot faster now
- changed bar switch handling (you can click on the whole left/right side now)
- added some more icons and placed them in a seperate folder (please read the icons_readme.txt for copyright)*

*thats the reason why its a bigger zip archive

Please read the readme.txt (liesmich.txt for german users) for detailed Installation Notes and Important Informations.

I hope you enjoy this widget.

have fun.

Amazing! you did a great job!

P.S.-
will there be support for .Kon files?

[manjusura]

This is wonderful work, SioSae - works perfectly for me so far. Thank you!

[M Mantovani]

Great job, SioSae. Thanks.

[shockme17]

so are there 2 konfab docks now? i dont get it.. theres another thread for another similar konfab dock...

[wiebeest]

I don't use Konbab, but this sure looks good being a Beta.
Congrats & good luck improving it.

Great Job. Only Problem I seem to be getting is that the Widget manager widget wont stay closed after I'm done using it. If I go out of konspose and back in, the widget manager is opened again.

And a suggestion: is it possible to make it ignore the taskbar and allow it to be completely hidden within konspose, until you hit the plus sign? It keeps snapping up above the taskbar for me.


Again Excellent work! Can't wait for the animations and drag&drop support.

Thanks.

Very nice dock...by the time it is out of beta I'll have my iMac but keep up the good work!

[SioSae]

@shockme17
I know there are two threads now, but I worked on my version for some time now and want to release a beta this evening. and why shouldn't do it on my own thread only because someone else was faster releasing his/her version.

@Binary
added your comments and suggestions to my open issues list.
konspose handling and final positioning isn't tested because of the beta status.

@jpgodlew
when will you get your mac?
...so the race is on

[Ghostwalker]

Dose spawning not work for anyone else? It just closes the widget and re-opens it for me...

I just spawned the weather widget and the translate widget with no problems


you might try deleting your registry entries for the widgets your trying.

[Ghostwalker]

one thing I would like to see if possible is to use .kon and .widget so that I can have a widgets Im working on in the dock. Gotta love the spawning.

I get this error :

[tarik]

I got that but it was because I was trying to open a .kon file instead of a .widget make sure its a .widget file you have linked to.on the weather widget I had to delete the registry settings after that it worked.
