Show Title

from Stardock Forums

Was using Dell dock and upgraded (switched to) Object Dock.  Now I am re-creating all my links and shortcuts, etc but find one thing missing right away.  When using a tabbed dock all that show are the icons.  Any way to show both the icons AND the title of the object?  id: Display Adobe icon but when hovering over the icon I get a pop-up that states Adobe Acrobat Reader.  Some of my Internet Explorer links show as generic web links and who knows which is which until you click on it. 

thanks!

 

**EDIT**
Looks like I have a similar issue as subbySSBN started below.

Not totally sure I understand what you are asking. Hopefully my response is what you are looking for. What I do is have my browser open than minimize it  Not to the system tray just make the windows smaller. If I have a web site I want to save to any dock I just drag it into the dock. In the case of the tab dock I have the Link section open and just drag any web site or anything into it. Than just right click on the icon as it will be your browser icon. Just click on change this icon/shortcut. Here you can change the name of the shortcut and also the icon. The name will show up when you hover over the icon. 

If this isn't what you are looking for i'm lost as to what you are asking

I think he wants to use icons with labels on a tabbed dock. IIRC, there is a setting somewhere to show labels. I don't use OD anymore so no help as to where.

If you are thinking he wants icons instead of the tabs it can't be done as the tabs are part of the graphic. However as I said if you click on the tab you want it will show the icons of the programs and even browser links. Thing with the browser icons however is that they are all the same depending on the browser till you change them. Sometimes I just can't figure out what people are actually asking at times.
