periferral Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 the site looks great. good work guys. can someone reply about the dock not adjusting when the screen size is changed. original post here. http://www.aqua-soft.org/board/showpost.ph...&postcount=2774if this is a bug, do i post this in the bug thread?also, it seems like stacks should show up in a stack box. However in my case, there is no box in which the items are listed. can someone suggest why this would be the case. screenshot attached.http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/163717/stack_open.pnghttp://dl.getdropbox.com/u/163717/stack_closed.png Link to comment
Phoshi Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 By Panta: offensive words removed. Keep doing so and you'll get suspended!!I can see the argument for and against shutdown docklets, and I say: Why not? It can't hurt, and it's a lot easier (for a novice) than making a shortcut to whatever your shutdown tool of choice is.@Deavy, awesome looking site, man. Am I right in thinking sIFR allows you to embed the font into the page? Or is it a flash based technology or something? Link to comment
Elevati0n Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 I must disagree! Think bigger' date=' think about all new, non-tech users that will be using this amazing dock. Thinking just about ourselves just don't work for a publicly available product... Well..I don;t see a need fot that kind of docklet. But u are 50 % right. Let's concentrate on other stuff This project has grown very well with our support and I must tell you that on the beggining I was circumspected (if it is the word) Besides, not all available solutions are [b']safe, not all work for Vista, etc. So, a good out-of-the-box, safe and multi-platform (think many flavors of Windows) is highly desirable! IMHO Vista is DEAD. A total fiasco. Win 7 is a litt' better but not much Cheers, Link to comment
Phoshi Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 Vista isn't dead. Vista is a very good OS, although it wasn't at RTM, it is now. Vista won't be dead until win7's release, just like XP wasn't dead until vista's. Link to comment

These depend on the skin you are using. Some skins are using the default icons, some don't. But you can change all these internal icons easily, with the help of matongas brand new SkinEditor. You can also add an custom icon onto your stacks, by rightclick -> Stack Icon -> Change IMHO Vista is DEAD. A total fiasco. Win 7 is a litt' better but not much Has anybody tried XWD on Win 7, yet? How is it working? What about the docklets? I'm curious! (I have to try it on VirtualBox...) Link to comment
Elevati0n Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 Phoshi: LOL.Is not the right thread to tell u what is good (1 2 things maybe) and wrong (plenty of...)with VISTA .No more Vista subject! Promise Link to comment
Phoshi Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 <_<Yeah, wrong thread. But seriously, anybody who hates vista should try it again, because it's almost a totally different OS now./ontopic, xwd works awesome in vista, especially the window transitions, benefiting from the DWM.

Panta Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 if this is a bug, do i post this in the bug thread?Yes, anything you suspect could be a bug should be posted there. also, it seems like stacks should show up in a stack box. However in my case, there is no box in which the items are listed. can someone suggest why this would be the case. screenshot attached.http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/163717/stack_open.png http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/163717/stack_closed.png I don't know if you're referring to: 1. the fact that when initially installed XWD won't use an icon for the closed stack (not even the skin-supplied one; you must explicitly select it), which is a bug since the first stack implementation or 2. the fact that the generated thumb occupies almost all the size of the icon, leaving no space for the illusion of being inside the box; I think an image of the m*c one will show what I mean. Please look at the stack and not at other, distracting things being displayed http://delta909.deviantart.com/art/Even-Flow-102149040 Either case, this is something only bobah can fix (who knows if for the next release?)

Deavy Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 vista is a peace of crap buggy, slowly and excellent example of MS FAIL! Other thing is Windows 7 (Se7en). This will be a pretty nice, fast and really good OS. sIFR is a nice technology that can embed any font via Flash player. Nothing complicated. Link to comment
Elevati0n Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 Glad to be not the only Anti-Vista person around here Link to comment
Panta Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 Deavy, with Micro$oft, the next, yet unreleased version will always be presented as the best, new panacea kind of thing! This beta seems to be well evaluated by Vista users but, remember, it's still almost a Vista SP2 (and built on top of Vista) and nothing more than that. But let's try remaining on topic here, as we'll never be able to impose our opinions over other users and in the end we'll have changed this thread into another 'I love/hate M$' kind of thread... Hopefully XWD will be kicking a**es at all those 'platforms'! Link to comment
Elevati0n Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 XWD will be kicking a**es at all those 'platforms'! maybe OSX & linux version Link to comment
Panta Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 XWD will be kicking a**es at all those 'platforms'! maybe OSX & linux version LOL Then, we'd be most certainly talking about Java but, why not? Hey bobah, did you hear that? lol Link to comment
Deavy Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 haha, Dock alternatives in OS X Joke of the day :DDD Link to comment
manufn619 Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 OMG my skin is on thier im gonna make 2 more skins and update the other ones so you guys better enjoy it !!!! Link to comment
Elevati0n Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 @Deavy: why not man? Alternatives improves the OS...not the builtin stuff LOL Link to comment
mps69 Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 Can we keep on topic please, this thread is big enough without more stuff being added that's not required at the moment. Link to comment
AndrewYY Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 Please help!This plea for help was ignored, and consequently buried in the F***ING HUGE DISCUSSION ABOUT M$So yeah...@sals: you're probably having a problem with a program that renders shadows on windows (like windowfx or yz shadow)Get that program to ignore xwindows dock and you're set. Link to comment
Panta Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 This plea for help was ignored, and consequently buried in the F***ING HUGE DISCUSSION ABOUT M$So yeah...I can only speak for myself but a generic 'Please help!' followed by a .bmp attachment (two 'mistakes' in so short a post) will never get my attention... sorry, but I'd have to download and then open a graphics program just for seeing what the generic help call is all about. :slant: Link to comment
mps69 Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 Ok I'll say it again, KEEP ON TOPIC!!Phoshi, AndrewYY there is no need for your language, consider this a warning. I get the feeling someone might be visiting the naughty step if we don't all start behaving. Link to comment

Vvvverrry soon Now I'm trying to make real icon's reflection like in our life. It's not so easy and also I'm going to fix some bugs with window's reflection engine... So try to wait for some days (2 or 3) I just want to publish new realese as without bugs as possible. thanks all. Link to comment
