Shortcut problems

from Stardock Forums
I have the free version of Object Dock.

When ever I use any shortcut on my dock besides AIM or MSN, when I have the application mimimized and I click on it in my dock, it opens a new window of the application rather then bringing it to the foreground like the window's taskbar(or startbar) does. AIM and MSN are the only ones that work properly. When I tried the foreground option under miscellaneous options,Firefox and my other apps came to the foreground like I wanted them to but AIM and MSN wouldn't do that now like they did before. Is there any way to fix this?

I am having the same problem.

If I have Firefox open but minimized to the task tray, Objectdock will open up a new Firefox browser when I click on my Firefox icon.

How does one go about making Objectdock open the the already open, but minimized browser window? I have tried right clicking on the icon, but there is no Restore option. Nor, in the properties for the icon is there a Restore option.

Thanks

ODock free > configure > general tab > miscellaneous options = check> when a shortcut is ran, if the program is already running bring it to the foreground only

should be an equivalent in the plus version, since I get a message when checking the box:

"Please note: this feature will only have an effect when indicators are being used on a given dock, and does not work on tabbed docks."

At 1st that didn't work but then I reloaded my AIM and MSN icons and reclicked that and it worked perfectly. Thanks!
