JMBdev... I like what you did with the UI for the minimize effect... much clearer now. With my settings as shown here... I still have a problem with Excel or Powerpoint 2007 icons. If I only have one instance of either Excel or Powerpoint open... no problems. As soon as I open a second instance of either one, even with neither instance minimized... I get two icons as shown below in the dock... <

One other thing I've noticed... for whatever reason, MS Project 2003 refuses to use the OD animation even though other applications do. It insist on using the Vista animation.
Thanks for the screenshot, yeah thats wierd behavior...can I ask, are any of the above running as administrator? Here are the properties for the excel shortcut I used to launch excel where the icons were all screwed up. Note that run as administrator is not selected or enabled. Could the screwed up icons be somewhat related to my problem above where I had all
virtualrain: also, there's a note when you click it in the next refresh and the option grays out... if you have "always show thumbnails" clicked, there is no minimize animation as the image for the window is already being used as the thumbnail on the icon itself. Ok, I unchecked "always show windows as thumbnails (Vista only)" and the animations worked as expected. That's great! But then why is this option even there? With my settings as sho
More strangeness with minimized apps: I have "Always show windows as thumbnails" checked in Vista and show minimized windows on the dock (only). Here is my dock (with minimized apps shown right of the last separator): Here is what was running at the time and the window state: - Two instances of Excel 2007 (not minimized) - IE 7 (not minimized) - Outlook 2007 (not minimized) -
1) I see there is a new feature called "Use minimize animation in Vista". What is this supposed to do exactly? Turning it on or off has no effect. I still get the same old Vista minimize animation which appears to be minimizing it to the next free position on the (hidden) taskbar. I presume this feature is supposed to replace the default Vista animation with one that actually minimizes it with animation to its position on the dock?
