Hey, I love the dock and I find it much better then the rocketdock I was using.

One problem is this: When I try to click on the "start at windows startup option" I get "failed to set data for xWindowsdock".

I run 32bit Vista.

Try disabling UAC (and let it disabled - for good!)

I had an error while opening a stack folder that's viewed as Menu. When I click on the icon then on Open, there's an error that says List index out of bounds (12). The folder still opens and I can continue on like normal, but it's a bit irritating if the error first pops up.

EDIT: Another problem, also with Stacks. In the folder I made a stack thingy, only one file gets shown when I click on it but there are other subfolders that don't get shown.

I can't explain it well so I added a screenshot

I second your second bug! The Stacks do not show all subfolders. In my case, the "My Documents" is my Stackfolder, and it does not show my special subfolders (My Pictures, My Videos, My Music) in it.

I discovered a new(?) bug: If windows are maximized and in front of the dock, moving the cursor to the bottom edge of the screen does not show the dock as it is supposed to do. Happens just in Office 2007 so far. Folders and Firefox are fine.

Ah, and the Win+M-bug. It would be a salvation to have this fixed. Please bobah take a look at that

Did anybody notice that?

Anyway, there's a new behaviour with Win+M after restarting the whole machine without having RocketDock starting. If you press Win+M then all windows will be hidden. Unfortunately not to the dock but to the taskbar. In my case thats pretty bad because I use ObjectBar to emulate the finder bar and for this reason there is no taskbar any longer So after a few minutes I will lose overview which windows are open.
Perhaps including minimizing to dock when pressing Win+M without using the genie effect would be a good solution.

Edit: I almost believed that everything would be fine now, but actually now no window will be minimized to the dock. They all are minimized to my hidden taskbar. If you restart the dock to regain the minimizing function, pressing Win+M will create the access violation again.

I have another problem:

When I open a Microsoft Office program from the dock it takes away the vista areo and replaces it with basic.

If I open it regularly with the start menu or a shortcut its fine.

I don't know if this is fixable since it seems like an OS problem, but I though I'd bring attention to it. Its nothing really bad, but its just kinda annoying.

Did you put the shortcut directly from the startmenu to the dock? These seem to be quite different from normal shortcuts when dragged to another location. Try using a shortcut directly to Word's directory.

See thats what I thought, but if I use a shortcut from the start menu, the icon the the dock doesn't even do anything.

If I use the actual .exe from the Office directory like you said, the program works but it reverts to windows basic like the picture showed.

Thanks though

Maybe the dock adds kind of a parameter to the shortcut, I guess you can check this by left-clicking on it and choosing "Edit".

No that didn't work ether. Nothings listed in the parameters box.

Warning! I don't have the solution! This is just a comment... (warning needed as it seems that some people don't appreciate when I comment... )

Expect this kind of problem when dealing with with Office. It's non-standards suite that doesn't even obey Microsoft User Interface Design Guidelines! It's developed by a separate group inside M$ and has always been a pain in the a** for many things!

I can't remember for sure if it was commented at matonga's Stack Docklet thread or somewhere else inside AS threads, but this has been reported as a problem too... so, good luck!

Dang that sucks, oh well. :s

Well I've got one more . When I open Firefox with the dock I get the Windows XP theme for Firefox. But again if I open it normally I get the regular vista theme. Think this ones fixable?

*lol* Thanks for your support! To be honest, this one was not targeted at you (after all things seem to be much nicer between us lately, right ).

It's just that I'm sick of people trying to 'educate me' about what I can do and what I can't, how I should do, and so on... pointless! If only their willing to give support to other users were that intense...

Cheers!

As links to Word 2007 and to FF work perfectly on my dock (Vista SP1) and now even Firefox shows this strange behaviour on your machine I guess it's not the fault of the dock, rather some system settings on your machine. Did you try to reinstall the dock?

I can second that Office 2007 - Shortcut thing! But this isn't the fault of the Dock, because its Office 2007! It does not create standard Shortscuts in the Start-Menu, but some wired commands! There will never be a solution for this, because it would have to come from Microsoft

But there is a work-around! Navigate to the C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOffice12 - Folder and add the Office-Programs from there, not from the Start-Menu. This works!
