There should be a rule for this ;)

I really loved your dock, but I changed to leopard two days ago. Thanks for your excellent anyway :) I will donate you some bucks.

Not sure if this has been posted but I think I found a bug. It seems that when using 512px PNG icons and using zoom effect, when the icons zoom out they look ugly. Look at images.

Image 1 Normal dock

Image 2 Zoomed out dock (ugly)

Is iTunes hogging the memory? iTunes is known for memory hogging. Sometimes Firefox hogs a lot as well.

I thought of that but this started yesterday, before that I was running all the same things I was running when I took that screenshot, I'll test without those apps soon.

@ BOBAH13:

Thank you for this amazing dock !!

One suggestion/desire: The Animation "Minimize to dock" is a little bit slow on my old desktop pc. Therefore it would be nice if the speed for the animation could be faster or, as an alternative, you could offer an option to use NO Animation to "Minimize to dock".

What you think? Will that be possible?

#511843

There is already a slider to control how fast the animation runs

#511844

I've started using this, and my only (current ;)) complaint is that windows stop being maximised when you restore them from the dock (under vista at least)

Apart from that, it's deliciously delicious, and quite usable (though it does have a rather clunkier feel to it than other docks, which I actually like, funnily enough :D)

#511845

Hi everybody,

First, i'm sorry, i'm french and my english is very bad... :(

@ BOBAH13 : Your app is really great ;)

... but i have two problems with it.

Because my english is very bad, i guess pictures will be better than a big text.

1- Stacks.jpg

I have made a folder with shortlinks of programs named... "Applications".

I'd changed some icons and name of this shortlinks. On Rocketdock with stack docklet, this works perfectly. But with XwindowsDock, this is the names and icons of the ".exe" who appears in the stack and in poor quality.

2- xwindowsDock02.jpg

I have a big problem of "vibrations" of the dock !

Regularly (several times a day), this problem appear and i must restart the dock... I don't know why. The dock "freeze" and i can't use it.

I am on win XP Pro SP2.

Many thanks for your help

Same thing is happening on my computer. I'm not sure which action on dock is making it to react like that.

#511851

Aagh, how about a minimising-exclusion list? ^_^;

#511852

Hi. A lot of you suggestions I have already done ;) So, please wait for some days. Also Matonga helps me with Dock's apis and Docklets functions and thanks him. So, I updated table about sizes of images in skin. 2 narkos: what about "vibrations" I think I fixed it, and another problem I'll think about it.

Hey Bobah think you know why I get the "out of memory" message?

#511855

[i can't know everything :) because I have much code of the dock. I'm trying to fix bugs.

#511868

hello

I have not used this dock to its potential from what I read that it can do I am scared to overdo it

Great dock by the way -cant wait until the next version .

#511869

ooh, how about an option to not change the stacks icon when you click it? So you can get the illusion of a box full of files, and not break that illusion when you click on it?

#511871

You can help me having paid a bit my WMID - 411631178412, WMZ - Z423892988444 :)

What's WMID, or WMZ? any links? I Want to help... Thanks!

#511872

great!

i'm waiting the xwindows dock 5.0

#511873

By the way, is it just my computer, or does this thing run significantly slower than rocketdock (and other docks)

The motions just feel less smooth for some reason... And the zooming is kinda glitchy (I'm sure you already know of this)

I'm using this dock because it looks shiny, but I wouldn't mind some optimizations and extra features :)

For now, I'll just eagerly wait for v5.

#511876

It's possible to make a new sub forum where the developers put the Xwindows dock themes? I think that because this is easier to see them.

What do you think about that?

#511877

I'm using WebMoney. You can read about it here http://www.wmtransfer.com/ thanks

What about themes, I agree with you and everybody cans create new thread. ;)

You should disable smoothing of dock's icons, you should change Icons's size and set Icons's size when mouse is over into minimum. I think after that your PC will feel much better :)

Great app! :)

But how can I change the icons of MyComputer, Folder and Trash?

Thanks in advance!
