2.How do you add and use skins?

1) To add applications just drag and drop the application into the dock.
2) Search for "Leopard skin for XWindows Dock" on Aqua-Soft forums.

The directions to install are in the package. You also have to play around with the settings to learn your way around and to figure what each thing does.

If you have anymore questions, just ask.

Could you give me a download link? I cant seem to find a link in the Leopard Xwindowsdock thread.
and if you can't can you just explain the process of adding and using skins in Xwindowsdock

He's currently updating v5.2.3 to v5.2.4, it will probably be available tommorow, but just search around for some.

PS: Mattey just released like 25, but I can't find the link

TO add and use a skin extract the skin.smxd file to your skins folder in the XWindows Dock directory, reload the dock and choose the skin from the settings panel.

I ve added to skins to the Xwindowsdock directory but when i go to dock preferences and try to change the skin the only skin I can choose is the default, how do I change the skin?

In the preferences settings click refresh in the dock settings, if nothing happens then,
1) Make sure you extracted to C:Program FilesXwindowsDockSkins directory

Well if everything failed, I would reinstall everything and try again. Sorry I couldn't be anymore helpful.

[blackbelt534]

Is there a uninstall module or do you delete the folder containing Xwindowsdock? because everytime I try to delete it I get the error message below

I hated Vista for things like that...

[username3d3]

First, exit out XWindows Dock and make sure it's not running in the background.
Next, delete the whole XWindows Dock folder, then reinstall.
I'm also not using Vista so I wouldn't completely know.

[blackbelt534]

Well it read the dock skins you send me, so could it be a problem with the skins I'm trying to use?( could you send me a leopard skin for Xwindowsdock?)

[username3d3]

It won't let me upload for some reason.

[blackbelt534]

could you e-mail it to me?

My english bad sorry

stack icon blur. Can i fix this? and ı change stack icon but bakground in folder but i didn't want...

this screen... Rk Laucher and XWindows Dock

1. I want to delete this: The 'background' items you wish to delete are the icon images contained within the stack folder, correct? Currently Matonga's Stack docklet provides you the option of only displaying the front 3 icons, thus feeling less cluttered. With XWD, it would seem all icons are shown in a closed stack, even with an 'overlay' stack icon assigned. I believe, currently there is no alternative to this. Your best solution might be to change the contents of your stack folder, or assign less noticeable icons within the stack, (See below.)

2. Icon's blur in XWD is due to how XWD handles windows icons. To fix this blur, right click on the stack icon (firefox) choose EDIT and change the icon with a Firefox.PNG icon. This is currently the recommended solution, I believe.

make sure that the skins are in the XwindowsdockSkins directory, that the skins you are trying to use are for the current version of xwindowsdock, and press the refresh button in preferences
