Icon where tab text is

from Stardock Forums
Hiya!

My question is can you put an icon where the tab text is?  Why I ask is because I want to put a tabbed dock on the left side of the screen but having the text vertical is a pain! (see thumbnail below).  Replacing the text with an icon would be a great solution. 

If it can't be done how can I a) rotate the text vertical and b) suggest to stardock to make this sort of option available?

Thanks for any help!

take the 'direct' & insert it into the box that pops up when you click the 'insert image' icon


then it will post here as:

To answer your question...the short answer is no...you can't use an icon in place of your tab. The other answer is that you can edit your tab by inserting an png image onto the active and inactive tab graphics....but thats about it...you can't have one for each different tab.

That would be a cool idea though. What about the text direction? Does anyone know if that is in the works for the future? (I had my docks on the left side for a while but I did'nt like the sideways text either.)
