Mac Os X Dock For Ppc!

Can someone please edit jon's flash dock for the ppc 240x320 i believe is the full screen size also to access executable programs use of external action scripts may have to be in place. If anyone thinks they can do this please do so I am looking into it but I don't have much time to see it through, but I can definitely test out anything thrown at me. And yes the 1024x768 flash dock works just fine on the ppc just needs to be resized-landscape mode in fullscreen mode would be the most useful.

also i believe you would need the source code of the flash file and edit it by hand in flash or somthing to change the sizes

tabs on top 24/7 for opened apps or possibly multiple desktops but that is a purpose the dock can serve so i see tabs more useful for apps that are already opened

Did you get icemans permission?

#107546

no but i would like to contact him about it but i suposed as long as we kept his txt file intact it would be ok....i would be interested to know if he could fix it for the ppc to the point executables. Does jon post here maybe i can pm him and ask for permission.

Don't waste your time trying to contact Iceman, he's dissapeared (we waited on him for month(s) to finish TD Panther 4.0) :dunno:

well anyways he does say any modifying of his source is fine as long as we retain his credits where credit is due.

Tell me, Deciever, what's the use of that dock in Mac OS X? I was looking at that attached image you shared, and I don't get the real use for it... And I don't know what exactly I'm looking at in that image. It's way too small to be a desktop and it has no taskbar either... Could you please enlighten me?

Thanks :wub:

? I don't get it? Mac OS X already has a fully functional dock? Why get another one?

isn't all about the looks? lol. The purpose is mostly the same as what it does on the desktop open programs! those icons on the desktop in that pic is just random stuff from an image I was using that had tabs. Basicly this is what I would like to see

1. a smaller dock for the pocketpc for executing programs more easily(anyone who uses the ppc will notice the lack of a desktop with assigned shortcuts.)

should be more than possibly if used with external action scripts i believe

2. have tabs on top for easy access between programs (ppc does not actually have a minimize and restore thing you know, some programs stay open when you close others stay running in the background slowing down other programs in use)

I have no idea whatsoever on how to implement this in flash, may need to be an actual program all together!

3. possibly have some icons in the dock that open various desktops with access to a group of similar programs(ex. emulation, business apps, control panel)

as long as executing programs is possible this won't be a problem

also there needs to be a vertical version and landscape. Landscape mode can interfere with the function of certain programs
