ObjectDock and Firefox

How to Maximize Firefox...

from Stardock Forums

Just started using ObjectDock and I like it alot.  I'm having one minor issue, that I'm hoping someone here can talk me through.

I'm using Firefox as my web browser.  Within Firefox, I use an extension called "Minimize to Tray".  When Firefox is minimized, instead of showing up in the task bar, it is shown as an icon in the system tray.  (Works for me when you sometimes have over a dozen apps or folders open at a time!)

I have ObjectDock set up to bring open applications to the front when you click them again.  However, this doesn't work with Firefox (or Thunderbird, which also has that extension installed).  When Firefox is minimized, and I click the icon in ObjectDock, nothing happens.

Additionally, is there a way to make ObjectDock open a fresh tab in firefox versus opening a new window?  I did some looking on the Mozilla forums, and the option they recommended did both.

I don't have that issue since i don't have that extension

Not at home to try, but.. I have WBlinds also which you can set to have windows minimize to tray instead of taskbar - I seem to recall using it and ODock it would minimize and come back... just not real sure

so, what we have here is failure to communicate...

on the good hand we also have an opportunity to:
