Aqua-Soft ForumsI dont know if anyone else has this problem. But I have noticed a distinct lack of sharpness with Moby icons compared to Y'z and OD. I have tried all three with the same icon sets and there is a clear difference. Can I do something to make Moby sharp. 1280x1024 nVidia Geforce 3 TI

yes, icons on yz aare a lot sharper than MD or OD (im putting my face out for a slap for some of the MD/OD fans over here 
) Its just the way it renders the different sizes in the zoom in...
Nothing you can do... nothing I can do...
PS: DONT TURN THIS INTO ONE OF THOSE THREADS DUCKIE/GOKU/CONTRA/SID CLOSE!
Isnt that actualy a feature of MD. It was intentional if i rember corectly.
what do u mean by intentional?
i mean if its is blurry on the OSX then yes it very well could be intentional
cause the intent of moby and mike is to accurately replicate the osx dock.
Yes the bluriness of the icons is intentional because afaik in non-magnified state, the OS X dock icons are just as blurry as in Mobydock.
That's why we keep saying that Mobydock is the most accurate dock out there. No one seems to take us seriously <_< (ahem....Y'z, OD fanboys beware :who's your daddy: )
And yes I will close this topic.
yes.
I dont know how moby can "fix" it (it isnt a problem) however, if you set the icons on 24, 32, 48, 72, etc the icons will be sharp. I do agree, yz has better idle look in any other icon size and if that could be achieved in mobydock, then it means we surpassed the osx dock as well. What do i mean by that?
I would say the "blur" is a very minor 'drawback' for few reasons:
1) the ORIGINAL OSX dock has the exact same look and 'extra' anti-aliased effect on the icons.
2) The functionality of the dock is shockingly identical (Right click menus on folders and any icons, in any place)
3) The speed & magnification effects are unsurpassed
4) Independent from other applications (uses the graphics card) which makes it flawless without EVER lagging.
none of the other docks reach the accuracy mobydock performe in any of the 4 major features I listed above, at least the last 3.
Such basic yet integral features, imo, shouldnt even be compromised with.
