what improvements does the beta have over the alpha?
[preview] Rk Dock
do you guys want me to release the beta version before the Genie effect is ready ?
yes please, release beta!!
I have been trying to find a good weather docklet for RKDock and I can't seem to find one.Any recommendations?Also how would I go about adding it to your dock?
u cant use docklets in RK Dock yet
I'd like to try a solid beta with Jenie already in it , We'll have to wait but , i think it is gonna be worth it
, what y'all think ?
If you think you are close to having the Genie effect done I say hold off until that is ready.

Does this mean you have the new items function done if you are working on Genie now?
I'd LOVE to get a beta with or with out the geni efect. ether way I'm closer to the best dock ever ![]()
Crap...so I'm just gonna have to wait for beta or final release.yes please, release beta!!

I would agree, if the Genie effect will be ready shortly- a few more days on the edge of our seats won't hurt us. But, if the Genie effect is weeks away. I'd release the beta.
Mmm...I'm loving the alpha (do you see my Avatar?...my host is down!)
indeed id rather wait for the alladin lamp effect to be released before it being released.
Unless of course its weeks away (any word?)
Don't push it guys...this is coming along very nice.

Eh? Who's pushing it?
Like the previous writers have written I'd like to see a beta if the genie effect is far away from being developed if it is a matter of days I can wait for the beta...
Well, I'm willing to wait until the effect is ready (even weeks). After all it looks already great and I think it worth waiting until major changes are implemented (the effect).
Take your time and do a great job!
Who's pushing it, he asked for out opinion.

Yes! even without the genie effect im sure with all the progress youve been making it would be awesome.. although the Genie effect would make it that much better but like with some people have been saying if the genie effect is complete in a few days hold off releasing it
don't release it with the alladin effect. but release it as a seperate download. like wincustomize's kind of style it's to keep apple of your back
^ Good call steelfist. I agree with the seperate plugin download.
I don't mind whether the first beta has a effect or not. As long as the current issues are addressed, I'd be happy.
I agree with steelfist u don't wanna end up the way Mr. Yamaguchi (Not sure about the spelling!) did!
Well it doesn't matter to me now if he does release it with the genie affect....just as long as I can get a weather docklet on it by god! ![]()
Y'z had half or less than half of the features that this has it just launched programs and showed indicators and docklets. The thing Raduking has to do is get a new set of icons to bundle with it.
let me tell you something: my country does not recognise Apple's pattents and it never will since in one of the last few days Europe's parlament voted against Software pattents because of polland:

As for mr. Yamaguchi I lost my respect for him because he didn't published the source-code of his dock because I believe you have the right to implement anything you want regardless of what the 'big' companies say.
he should have done that as a protest because US favors big corporations in such a way that they are able to tell us what software to write and what software not to ! that's against our basic human rights !
I am allowed to reproduce and sell any of Da Vinci's work as long as I say it's not the original... same for software. Is like giving one company the entire control over Antiviruses or any other kinda software.

That's rather cool indeed.
I never got the fact Apple got after Y'z dock but never after ObjectDock or Mobydock.
I can imagine that the fact that Y'z dock came with OS X ripped icons as a default (or was that Aquadock?). Your Alpha-release contains icons & dock background that is almost 1:1 OS X.
You think because your above statement they could neve rpersuit you in your country?
I thought Apple had also pattented their genie-effect, you think that wouldn't be a problem too?
The AquaApps here on A-S got banned too, don't you think Apple loyers watch this site and the developement of this app in particular with great interest?
Aquadock was just Y'z Dock with the name changed. From what I've read it seems that what they care about is what artwork is bundled with the program.
so per the voting, i can't tell...are you going to wait to release the new version or put out the one without genie first/today?
