Here are my requests.
1.Minimize effects that go in reverse for restoring.
2.Auto resizing dock for when there are too many items and the dock goes off the screen, much like Object Dock does.
I've had numerous problems where I'd have a decent sized dock, but then when I am doing work and have lots of windows minimized the dock goes off the screen. It'd be nice to have this combined with the margin idea so that way we don't have to reset our margins everytime the dock gets smaller.
4.Lastly, would it be possible to have compatiabilty with WinFX minimize maximize effects?

Hmmm... when a Genie comes outta bottle, it comes out with smoke, and some rotations (blurry tails). I see AveDesk 1.3 coming with Flip Effect 
All windows can go on flipping and shrinking (till it goes to dock) 
I know wild imagination (I should be in jungle... neh... desert)
Window Rolling (roll it like a newspaper) from left to right and "suck" it to Docker (yeah another wild one)
Window getting blasted into particals and those particals get sucked into dock (lol... I'm one wild animal)

I'll post this in feature requests too"
not only the suffix ".lnk" comes up, the desktop.ini as well.
maybe the developer can disapear the desktop.ini in the next release as well.

If you download the lastest beta, from the website, you can add it to the minimize exculsion list. It does work.

I would like to second the option to either have the option to have minimized windows go to the taskbar AND the dock and for others who may be interested, a per application setting I guess, as to what goes where. I made a thread about this not realizing there was already a request thread (whoops). Also, I downloaded the latest nightly build and some features are missing that were available in the latest release, or at least in the GUI, why is that?

I hope U realize that this isn't helpfull at all because there are already indicators under running applications and also you can check the "Show new applications" button to show all open applications.

I had the impression that Show New Applications Showed newly installed apps.
What do you mean? The "Show new applications" feature show in the dock
the .exe files running (if not already in it or excluded).

A request I'd like to make is about minimize to dock exclusion list.
The program seem to minimize by program process, anything opened by such progam is excluded or included.
What I'd like to request is exclude by window type...
i.e
I have MSN contact list window and MSN chat window.
I want to minimize chat window to the dock, but
not the contact window, it should remain in the task bar.
I had a program that was able to do this, but it only worked in 98SE & ME...
I can try and find the programmer if you'd like.

maybe another option to add beside "always on top" is "on Desktop" so that when "show desktop" is press, it does not disappear.
i saw this feature on Rainlendar, yet another neat program.

yes i would love that i dont like always on top of windows but i like always on top desktop... (pin to desktop) and it would be nice if i went to the side of a window it would appear normally as if autohide is on.
also is it possible to add mulitple rows such as that of nlauncher
http://www.nlauncher.com/
also another feature of nlauncher is the ability to have it set as a "taskbar: kind of way where you can have ur window maximized yet it doesnt cover the dock as seen in.

Only one feature wanted from me.
I need drag'n'drop document opening.
On OS X and Y'z you can drag a document from a folder in and drop it on an application of your choice on the Dock, that application (not the system default one) will open that document. You can do this with Explorers QuickLaunch bars too, but not with the Task Bar. You could do it on the bottom bar on a RISC OS 32 bit Acorn computer too, and IMS it worked with the Dashboard on HP-UX last time I worked with it.
This feature (or the lack of it) is one of the major reasons I gave up on ObjectDock, so there's a plus for your app over some of the compotition, and I don't think MobyDock did it either. But RK dose such a spiffing job of not eating CPU cycles, even with updating plugins, and also handles Full Screen DirectX apps without pulling the desktop back when ever the mouse bounces off the side, I'll use it even without.
The problem for you is how to destinguish between a drop between icons and a drop on an icon.
A Mac greys a Dock Icon being dropped on, and seems to match the curson to the alpha blend of the icon, Sprite Collision Detection style. But that could just be impressions. Certainly if it takes too much CPU time I'd have a 10% either side of the Icon is "between icons" and anywhere in the other 80% of the Icon is "on the icon".
Good luck with this very promising app. I love it to bits.

:cool: Cool!
:slant:Welll, that's my bad I guess. Saw others mention it, bud didn't see the issue described the way I would.
Drag'n'drop they all do, Drag an app and drop it on the dock for convenient launching. But most on Windows only allow a Dock Drop target not Icon Drop targets for documents.
:embaraced: I never have been good with Forums, always miss stuff.
Anyway. Cheers.
