Lost. Send help.

from Stardock Forums
I finally have downloaded Object Dock and am enjoying the talents of others.
I've toyed with it for a couple of hours now but don't understand how to show the contents of my Quick Launch in the Object Dock.
As an example, I use IE7 Pro, FF, Opera, Sandboxie etc..
When I hide the Task Bar and/or the Quick Launch Bar, I lose these items.
I tried to go to SDK download to see if there was anything that would help and found nothing that seemed to be
an answer.
Hope this isn't a foolish questions.
Thanks.

I see the way to make a link to the Quick Launch for the Object Dock.
All that does is put 1 link there and when I click on it, it open's a window where I have to scroll to what I'm looking for and then click on that.
That;s kind of defeating the purpose of Quick Launch.

Perhaps I'm using the wrong program.
I've seen jpegs of desktops where the Quick Launch and the Task Bar were customized but still funtional.
I was hoping to be able to do that.
Thanks.

Without seeing a screeny I would say that they are of WindowBlinds skins. WindowBlinds skins the windows GUI.

I have Show desktop,switch windows and 4 other apps in quicklaunch. These can easily be added to OD as separate icons.Thus, if I hid my taskbar ,quicklaunch would be on ObjectDock.I don't have sys tray support on the free version,but OD+ should be able to replace your taskbar.Explore a little more,you'll see. ;)
