Object Dock plus 1.9 build 535u rapid flickering of Tabbed dock when running Second Life

July 7, 2007 4:03 AM from

Hi All,

I have Object Dock plus (and Object Desktop) installed on XP SP2 with an ATI Radeon 9800 All-in-Wonder pro 128mb video card. When I play Second life, the tabbed dock I created flickers wildly. To be certain it's not another component of the Object Desktop I unloaded Windows blinds, DesktopX and other running parts of Object Desktop.

I activated all the "trouble shooting options" and that did not change the flickering behaviour. Further I tried several styles, "Eminance" (Colored Tabs", "Aero" (No Colored tabs) to see if that would help -- it did not help :<

How do I stop this horrible flickering?

Turn off OD before the game starts?
Turn off "always on top"?

Hi Zubaz,

Both are valid points except that the object dock replaces my quick bar; in Second life I work with interfaces into rl computer systems via xml-rpc etc so I need access to my Object Dock. Also, I play SL in windowed mode so I can read my email surf etc while in the game (which to me is like IRC on steroids and lsd).

So I need OD to be operational and not flickering while SL is running :>

To verify, OD flickers when SL is windowed but not under the OD dock?
