Y'z Dock 0.6.0 Bug Reports.

I have a menu bug from my main hdrive. I don't have windows 'normal' file structure... The new version only displays added folders/files other than my windowsXp directory and apps. ie: System, library, applications, users, etc... It's very annoying. :(

Every other folder except for the contents of my hardrive are fine. :) -The menu's are a great edition to the dock. :)

Keep up the good work!

Cheers

don't quite understand what your saying but anyways I got bug that when I use the pop-up menus from a folder or "My Computer" the shortcuts I have that do not work anymore (because of me moving the real program to another location) keep giving me errors......uh never mind......it doesn't give me the "Problem with Shortcut or whatever the error was but I still get the same error when nothing is in my floppy drive and then when I go to click the window OK my "My Computer" icon gets stuck and is supose to disappear I supose cuz it just floats above everything partly transparent................and uh when I click on the floating icon the dock pops up from hiding and no "My Computer" comes up..............

If I link C:\ not all of my folders pop-up in the menu. :)

That is a simplistic description. :)

I love the folder menu popup. But, it is slow when the mouse is moved along the folders inside it, since it need to scan each contents and display them directly. This is more significant with My Computer link, when you move mouse pointer along the drives, it is so slow, since it need to scan each drives. I think it is better to have option to only display popup of the folder content when you click at it. So that it does not have to scan everytime you move the mouse pointer along. Just my opinion.

And, when the folder menu popup appear and it happen to be too long, there are arrows both on the top and bottom of the popup menu. But it is not consistent, sometimes you need to click at the arrow, and sometimes you just have move you mouse pointer below so that the popup menu will scroll. Hope that can be fixed. I prefer to just move the mouse pointer below. :)

I love the menu popup, its just that when I try to empty the trash with it Yzdock crashes :(

One really bugging thing about the pop-up menu is mouse-overing the Floppy drive icon...as soon as you mouse over the floppy drive menu (and if there is no floppy in the drive) an error message keeps popping up until u close the menu.....

yeah I had the same problem siddarth. I think an option that really needs to be implimented in the pop-up menu is to give the option to edit files/folders that you do or do not want to show up and the same for internal drives. Great feature though :D and the popup happens instantly on me if I hold down ctrl but the long left only click is understandable since you could be clicking to open it or you could be wanting to take it out of the dock and it has to wait to make sure you want the menu.

just make the option, user need to click on item in popup menu to display the next popup. so that it doesn't need to scan every drives/folders each time mouse-overing.

and I think there's a bug in folder popup menu, some drives/folders do not display the contents correctly. Some of my drives, displayed as empty, even I have several folders in it. weird. <_<

Did you install the new docklets in the Docklets folder included in this latest 0.6 version? I have seen this problem mentioned quite a few times now over at DT², and it's been that people are still using the old 0.5.2 trashbin docklet and this is why it's crashing in 0.6. Y'all have to keep in mind that this dock is still beta and things are changed around quite a lot from release to release...so the best thing to do to avoid any sort of problems or crashing is to start out from scratch every time. Folders structures, files, .lang files, etc. change with every release and if all of them are not all updated properly you will definitively have problems. With fresh installs a large majority of the bugs I read about usually dissapear.

great news Michael, thanks for letting us know that fixed it :D

I find that when the bouncing icon effect is turned on, the whole dock judders and sometimes freezes after an icon has been clicked for about 2-6 seconds.

#16641

Even when the dock is set to be not allways on top, every time I mouse over a window (maximized) and my pointer hits the edge of the screen, the dock appears. This is so annoying!! I can't keep using the dock if it doesn't get changed because the dock blocks what I am dooing and I have to click somewhere on the window to rehide the dock.

#17683

Martin, I'm not really sure this is considered a Bug, as so many of us actually like this feature. We like it this way so that the Dock isn't on top of things and in the way, but it's easily accessable. There's no point to have to minimize every window just to get to the dock. We might as well just use Microsoft's wonderful quick launch toolbar.

Sorry if this sounds like I'm flaming you, I don't mean to. I just wanted to express to you, everyone else, and Mr Y and Marvilla, that many of us like this feature.

Maybe Mr. Y and Marvilla could put a setting in that allows this to happen or not. Something like "Never bring to front" or "Bring to front after mouse hover = X seconds". Just a thought though.

#17704

I guess I'll get used to it cause I really like Y'z dock, it just pops in the way at unexpected times.

#17706

well it does have an option to dull it so that it delays longer before it pops-up but lately I've found I like hiding it the best cuz for some reason when I glue it on the desktop the dock gets slow after being on the comp for awhile but I never really had this prob until 6.0 o0.

#17879

Anyone else have this prob? Quicktime Will run absolutly crappy when Y'z is running with it. My dock will start flashing and the playback coming from Quicktime is absolutly horrible. If I close Y'z, the prob is solved, if I closed Quicktime, the prob is sloved. Prob is that I kinda like to watch my quicktime movies AND still leave my dock open.

#18308

having same probs with powerdvd.

i think this is an issue due to the video overlay both players used.

dont know if you can switch off using overlay in quicktime.. but if you can: this will do the job for you
