Re-ordering/dragging icons has stopped working

from Stardock Forums
For some reason I can no longer drag my icons around. I do not have any docks locked. Any ideas?

I only say this because it's such an easy thing to miss -

On a regular dock, the dock's right-click menu directly shows "Lock Dragging" to either check or uncheck. On a tabbed dock, the right-click menu shows "View" and the "Lock Icon Dragging" is in a submenu within "View".

Changing the setting on a regular dock seems to set it for all the regular docks. Changing the setting on a tabbed dock seems to only affect the tabbed dock that you are clicking on.

Does any of this help?

Thanks, but that wasn't the problem. I left for the day, and came back, and now its working. Its alomost like my screensaver help reset something (as odd that sounds).

Nice. One thing you could do as a last resort is to save your current dock, uninstall and reinstall. if you have plus this will be a real pain because you have to reorder but... if your really have to you could. One thing that might work is to quit OD, move the OD folder (C:\Program Files blah blah blah) to like the desktop or something (before you do this uncheck "load at startup" in the OD settings) reboot windows. when it's rebooted restore the OD folder and start OD again, this sometimes fixes things.
