show desktop? try this:

use the search function and search for "show desktop." that'll give you the shortcut. just drag that onto the dock and give it an icon.

oops sorry,
i just tried it though on y'z .8.3 and it worked:

Link to - C:\Documents and Settings\realitybath\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\Show Desktop.scf

and it worked with or without this added too

Work Folder - C:\Documents and Settings\realitybath\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\

maybe you have a different version of y'z?

I'm sure someone else 'll know... good luck.

dragging the shortcut should work on any version of y'z. either drag from the shortcut found from the search, or drag from the quick launch folder.

Help!
Is there a way to creat a Windows Explorer shorcut on the dock that shows "desktop" instead of "C:\Document and Settings\Administrator\Desktop" on the address bar?

:(

1. put it in the startup folder you see in the start menu.

taskbar properties > start menu > customize > add > continue the wizard and add y'z dock to the startup folder.

2. there's a start menu docklet.

3. there's a tasks docklet.

Is there a way to link an icon on the dock to "start". I'd like to get rid of the task bar altogether. Maybe a way, when you click on the Y'z icon it brings up the start menu from the dock? TIA

Is there a way I can have a submenu on the dock?

I want to right click a folder (or hover) and have a sub menu pop up.

Is this possible (without control+click)?

Thanks

hi everyone!

i'm a new user of y'z dock and i was wondering if there is a way of adding a shortcut or something that allows me to connect/disconnect a dial-up internet connection...

some kind of icon that shows the connection status and also allows me to dsconnect with a click or something like that...

another cool thing to add to the dock would be some sort of task monitor... so that instead of using a docklet such as taskmenu for example, the open tasks would appear on the dock.

is this doable? could anyone here help me out?

thanx!

Bogdan

Dial-up Networking shortcut:
C:WINDOWSsystem32rasphone.exe "name of connection"


Eject CD Drives:
Paste this code into notepad and rename it eject.vbs. You can edit the file to choose which drive to open. Then get a nice "eject" icon and you'll be set. I had to use this recently. I disabled the eject buttons on my drive so my 1 yr old son wouldn't open them, and I just open them from my dock.
  const Drive = "0" 'Edit this variable to change the corresponding drive
  
  'Option Explicit
  On Error Resume Next
  
  Dim WshShell, chkOpen, RegEntry, RegCheck, ErrNum, wmp, cdroms
  
  Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
  Set wmp = CreateObject("WMPlayer.OCX.7")
  Set cdroms = wmp.cdromCollection
  
  RegEntry = "HKCUSoftwareCDTray"
  
  RegCheck = WSHShell.RegRead (RegEntry)
  ErrNum = Err.Number
  
  if ErrNum <> 0 then
  WshShell.RegWrite "HKCUSoftwareCDTray", 0 ,"REG_DWORD"
  WshShell.RegWrite "HKCUSoftwareCDTrayOpenClose", "1"
  End If
  
  
  chkOpen = WshShell.RegRead ("HKCUSoftwareCDTrayOpenClose")
  
  If chkOpen = "1" Then
  If cdroms.Count >= 1 then
   cdroms.Item(Drive).Eject
  End If
  WshShell.RegWrite "HKCUSoftwareCDTrayOpenClose", "0"
  Else
  If cdroms.Count >= 1 then
   cdroms.Item(Drive).Eject
   cdroms.Item(Drive).Eject
  WshShell.RegWrite "HKCUSoftwareCDTrayOpenClose", "1"
  End If
  End If
  
  WshShell.Run "Taskkill.exe /F /IM WScript.exe", 0, TRUE
  
  Set WshShell = vbnull
  Set wmp = vbnull
  Set cdroms = vbnull

i like this! i have 2 drives i'd like to control so i'm gonna do eject1.vbs and eject2.vbs. the thing is, there's a lot of 1's and 0's in the script and i'm not sure exactly what to change to, well, you see what i'm asking...

First line in script:

const Drive = "0" 'Edit this variable to change the corresponding drive

being capable of reading may be of some help sometimes, you know... ;)

const Drive = "0" 'First CD-ROM
const Drive = "1" 'Second
const Drive = "2" 'Third

Apologies for bringing up an 'lets say older thread' where the app is no longer supported, but I just got a cool surprise today...I have always been a huge fan of YzDock0.83 and how nice and smooth all its animations are and very light on the resources, but when installed XP SP2 some 4-5 months ago, it immediately caused the Dock to have all kind of issues, so I switched to ObjectDock..

I have tried RKLauncher and it is going to be a 'rockin app' once it gets out of its initial stages, and today I thought, "You know MS has had a bunch of performance/security patches via WUv6, and I wonder..."

Yes installed YzDock today and it is once again running beautifully smooth with absolutely no issues that it dispalyed when XP SP2 wa initially installed! :)

My question is:

Is there a way to NOT have it show labels...? As I got use to having the 'dock icons' being shown without labels, and am used to this nice, clean look...I remeber where 'ThreeDrives' had posted something regarding this, but I have done a bunch of searches and to no avail...

Thanks..:)

Yes, thanks Ivan as I posted a new thread (really wasn't needed-sorry), but I didn't think that members were still active/looking in this 'real old thread'...lol
