With WindowFX, you can get a nice preview window of an application in the Taskbar on Windows XP. However, I can't seem to replicate this using the Taskbar functionality in either ObjectDock or ObjectBar. Is there a way to do this currently? If not, is it on the product roadmap?
ObjectDock has a preview when minmized to the dock but that is all currently. Thanks for the feature request.
Is this only for Vista, or for XP? I'm running XP SP3 and can't seem to get a preview...might be user error, though. 
Sorry, further clarification: on Windows XP, with WindoxFX, ObjectDock, and ObjectBar, I can't seem to get the "Taskbar" objects in ObjectDock or ObjectBar to display the preview windows. Does it not work, perhaps, with tabbed docks? Time to experiment some more...
I use WindowsFX and it's preview feature on XP Home SP3. As mentioned by Zubaz there is a preview feature with ObjectDock when you minimize. It's not as good as the WindowsFX feature with the Windows Taskbar. I don't know if there is such a feature with ObjectBar. I use all three, WindowsFX, ObjectDock Pluse and ObjectBar.
The preview on minimze function in ObjectDock works for both XP and Vista in normal and tabbed docks.
Oh, I see it now. It's a small preview window with the icon in the lower-right. Any chance I can get a preview display above the icon, like how WindowFX does it above the Taskbar? In general, I'd like the preview to be larger without making the icon zoom to 256 pixels.
