Object dock ? i dont get it...

September 28, 2003 9:35 AM from

My object dock just sits at the bottom of the screen, removing the start-menu bar at the bottom (dunoo what its called, its the one with the start button and systray)
ive seen lots of screenshots with people with like 4 docks, 1 at the bottom, 1 at top, left and right, how do you do that ? also, im running quite many programs from the systray, like dc++, mirc, msn, etc etc, how do i get the systray icons into object dock ? i cant access these programs with the object dock on since it "steals" my start menu...

I don't know how they get the multiple docks, especially since Stardock has pretty much told us it can't be done. I think it looks really cluttered anyway but that's just my opinion.

As for the systray there are a few things you could do. Are you using DesktopX as well? If so, you could just make a new object and set it to be the systray. That's what I'm doing, and I'm using this as a background, it matches most of my docks....

You could also unhide the Windows taskbar in the Objectdock settings and maybe move it to the side or top of your screen and autohide it.

Any of those sound appealing?

I believe the multiple docks in some screenshots are the result of cutting/pasting different screenshots.
