Reply to ObjectDock Plus crashing (runtime error) in ObjectDock WinCustomize Forums

I'm using the xml weather docklet and have the same problem that started today also. Deleting the weather docklet fixed it. Does this issue usually resolve itself soon from weather.com's end or could this problem last awhile? I hate using the Accuweather docklet because it is anything but accurate; the temperature shown on the dock says 68 sunny/cloudy and temperature for today on the flyout menu says 72 sunny/cloudy but it says 74 on their website and there is not a

Reply to PowerDvD in ObjectDock WinCustomize Forums

Yes I can run it but there is a problem with OD's transparency and PowerDVD. If you have OD set to any amount of transparency, the PowerDVD window will appear completely black or purple while the movie is playing. If you move the window around while it's playing then you can see the movie flickering quickly. If you turn off transparency (set it to Opaque) in the Option, Appearance then it will play fine. This is the only problem I've had with PowerDVD. I don't know if it's fixed in OD 1.9 bec

Reply to Weather Docklet does not work in ObjectDock WinCustomize Forums

Does anyone else find that Accuweather is not so accurate? The other day it was 78 degrees Fahrenheit here and partly sunny. All the other weather services had it right except for AW which said it was 70 and cloudy. Not just the docklet but the site too. I find TWC to be more accurate IMO. Yes I cannot stand Accuweather and think they are the worst service, practically and ethically, which is

Reply to No Z-Ordering option for Tabbed Docks? in ObjectDock WinCustomize Forums

I guess I could do that too, but then when I move my mouse to the tabs they won't automatically popout anymore (I have 'show dock as drawer' checked). I have to click on the tabs to make them come out. Does anyone else have this problem with OD 1.3?

No Z-Ordering option for Tabbed Docks? in ObjectDock WinCustomize Forums

I'm using Object Dock 1.3 and I don't see any Z-ordering option (Always on Bottom)under the Tab Settings. As a result the tabbed dock always pops out when I move my cursor near the top of the screen when there's another window open and on top. I fixed this temporarily by delaying the mouse activation so if I do move my cursor to the top of the screen and then move it away quickly the tabs won't pop out. But is this a bug that they forgot to include this option?

Reply to Power DVD , Objectdock, and Nvidia in ObjectDock WinCustomize Forums

I have the exact same problem as the original poster and can't find any permanenet solutions. I tried what the above post said but it didn't work. This happens with all nvidia drivers I use. I downgraded to 66.x nvidia drivers but I still have this problem. The only way to temporarily fix this is to close Objectdock and then open Powerdvd and load the file. This problem also happens with Media Player Classic also. It's really annoying

Reply to OD problems, new user. in ObjectDock WinCustomize Forums

The popping out problem is probably because there is a hotspot set for the tabbed dock. Go to Tab settings, hotspots and see if there are any white arrows in the box. If there are then click on them and set the option to do nothing to this tabbed dock

Reply to Tabbed dock with tabs in ObjectDock WinCustomize Forums

I think I know what you're saying. When you first installed OD plus, it gave you a tabbed dock and a regular dock. The tabbed dock was on top and everytime you moved your mouse down to the center of the taskbar the tabbed dock would pop out. If this is the problem, then go to Tab Settings, Hotspots, click on the white arrow pointer, then change the option to 'Do Nothing to this tabbed dock'. That should solve it.

Do I Need SDMCP.exe? in Stardock Support General WinCustomize Forums

This file keeps loading during startup. I don't have Stardock Central or Object Desktop. I tried one of those programs about a year ago then removed it. I only have Windowblinds 5, ObjectDock, and Icon Packager. Can I remove sdmcp.exe and if so what's the best way of doing it? Thanks in advance.

Reply to Why Double-Click Needed to Launch Explorer? in ObjectDock WinCustomize Forums

I also had the problem where I had to double click "My Computer" in order for it to open. I noticed someone mentioned the option "When a shortcut is run, if program is already running bring it to the foreground only", and I had it checked so on a whim I unchecked it and that solved the issue. "My Computer" works with a single click now. Maybe you can try that really quick if you haven't already.

I might actually read your post if you had a more intelligent user ID. It's ok if you don't wanna read my post, but I find it dumb that you would think a a short user id name has any bearing on the content of someone's opinion. Also laziness, I mean, you can't look down a few centimeters below my name

Reply to Does Copying Music = Stealing? in Personal Computing WinCustomize Forums

Except whoever heard of multi-millionaire landlords not being able to afford to maintain their buildings? And what if these landlords were blatantly stealing from their tenants as well and when these tenants tried to move someplace else they found all the landlords were the same? And there was nothing that could be done because it was in their contract which was even worse because it made the landlord's theft absolutely legal. Stealing is stealing, a

Reply to Does Copying Music = Stealing? in Personal Computing WinCustomize Forums

This concept that I wouldn't buy it anyway therefore taking it does not lose a sale is totally flawed. Fundamentally. This doesn't seem that hard to prove if you just look at it very practically. If your friend mentions a band to you and says they're really good and you decide to download it and a

Help, IconPackager a disaster (packages not working, wrong icons, missing icons, etc.) in IconPackager WinCustomize Forums

I think Iconpackager is completely screwed up. I started with Iconpackager 3.0a and am now using the latest IP 3.1 shareware on WinXP. Some packages like the Gris&Glow1.5 and Marcintesh don't work. When I try to apply them IP will just automatically close with no error messages. It looks like nothing happened but then I notice a few extensions like .rar, .zip, and .dll did get changed. The rest are the default icons. For the packages that can be l

And the problem with the tabbed docks losing its place after screen resolution change has NOT been fixed for me. I'm using version 1.1.510 plus

Reply to ObjectDock 1.1 in WinCustomize News WinCustomize Forums

How come nobody's complained about OD still not having a lock dragging for the tabbed docks? It's so annoying when you accidentally drag something off and it disappears. I think now 1.1 makes it go to the last place in the row if you drag it off the dock but it doesn't always do that. They have a lock dragging for the object dock why can't they make one for the tabbed docks?
