Leopard ObjectBar Enhanced - Updated to include AveForceQuit and iShut built into the Apple menu

For all those who have asked repeatedly for my OB, herewith an enhanced release of the Leopard theme.

I have built in a few more features and made the dropdowns 95% accurate - when compared to the Leopard information displayed by the MenuBar on my Mac

This version contains the vbs file already built into the spotlight for Landvermesser's MacSearch application (available here http://landvermesser.tripod.com/index.html), it also includes d-bug's AboutMac, an AboutFinder box and a pseudo Finder Preferences application.

Please download ALL 3 zip files and install as per the individual ReadMe files contained within each zip file.

Part One: Contains the OB theme, please install the fonts and install the theme into your ObjectBar directory

Part Two: Contains the other elements needed for the theme. NB Please install the contents of this zip into your C:Program Files directory.

Part Three: Contains AveForceQuit and iShut, - both with Leopard skins. For users running version 1.0, there are two bar files

to be placed in your OB theme "Bars" folder to update to 2.0 NB Please install the contents of this zip into your C:Program Files directory.

This mod was compiled using OB 1.6 and tested under WinXP - I'm not sure if it will work under OB2

Please note, this theme is not intended to be a fully functional version of the Mac MenuBar, it features some pseudo elements (battery meter, sync etc.), much like the original TigerBar had - no more, no less.

Its intended to share some of the Leopard items we enjoy using the Mac with those users unable to do so.

Many thanks to Apple, Pete Ross, Magbi9, d-bug, AndreasV and beric / jed717ph

Mmmm, that's a pretty bar.

BAH DAMNIT, if only OB didn't screw up my windows, on my 2nd screen. If anybody can fix this, I'd be using this theme

(Most of the pseudo elements either given function or hidden, mind you )

How about also integrating macsound, and possibly using a nice simple virtual desktop manager for spaces?

Of course, I still can't use it, but <_<

You need to have Stardock's ObjectBar installed.

You extract the files as instructed in the readme - part one to your StarDock ObjectBar folder (see your installation for the correct path). The other zip's need to go into your Program Files directoryMenu Bar.

In my casethe normal menu falls of the screen on the left side and it seems to be on top of the apple menu so i can't acces that one...I can tellfrom the tree in objectbar that The apple menu is on top, followed by the "normal " menu and followed by four spaces...

Does anyone know what the problem might be?

Other than that this skin makes the gap between my mac at work and my xp laptop smaller once again. Great job!
