Can you post a screenshot of this? I just added a dock to the right side of my screen, and it's not truncating the text at all, so I may be missing something.

I'll start poking people as they arrive at the office.

It has appeared on your account (I checked), but just on your Stardock account. We no longer have the keys to the Impulse kingdom, so we can't pull that off, but you can download it from http://download.stardock.com/
That's quite the journey you've taken us on, there...
[quote who="PoSmedley" reply="23" id="3088627"]This has become a dealbreaker for me as well. AFter screwing around with several media players (SOngbird, Winamp, KPLayer,..) and several music managers I've finally settled on MediaMonkey. It handles the tagging, artwork, and all the ID stuff very well and it's easy to use. [/quote] I use MediaMonkey for organizing everything, but as a player, it's too bulky for me. I'm a foobar2000 fan, myself.
Reproduced. Poking the right people...
Dealbreaker question: Does the music library recognize the 'Album Artist' and 'Track Artist' ID3 tags as being two different things, and which does it organize with?
Looks like RND's love needs no schedule...
It sounds like more than Deskscapes is crashing. If your icons are disappearing, then explorer.exe is no longer running, either.
[quote who="Zubaz" reply="67" id="3088349"]I tap the Winodws key and start typing to open what I want or search for things. Why use a menu?[/quote] I actually no longer use the start menu for this, I have Launchy, which has additional fun features.
[quote who="Wizard1956" reply="17" id="3088331"]Rule #3: Don't provoke the duck.[/quote] There's a joke here about ducking if you do, but I can't seem to put it together...
[quote who="Wizard1956" reply="299" id="3088194"]It looks half dressed.[/quote] This is how we do things here at Stardock. Fair warning if you were planning on visiting... ;)
[quote who="LizMarr" reply="63" id="3087735"]As for the things that drive me nuts with Win 8, MS has already declared they will NOT be bringing the Start Menu back.[/quote] I thought about this, and frankly, I use the start menu so rarely that I'm not sure how much I'll miss it.
[quote who="Brokerdan" reply="6" id="3087701"]Also I do not understand what you mean by WB disabled? [/quote] 'Disabled' may have been the wrong word. Try setting WindowBlinds back to the default Aero setting and see what happens:
Windows 8 is still very young. They're going to be putting out another preview version which you may like a little better. And right now, we haven't updated anything to work with Win8 yet, because it's still not finalized. Once Win8 is officially released, I'd imagine we would be able to update most of our software to work with it. (no guarantees, can't predict, blah blah blah)
At this point, send an email to support@stardock.com with a summary of what's happening (reference this post as well), so we can gather a bit more info on your computer and what's happening.
[quote who="Neil Banfield" reply="2" id="3087318"]It sounds like a video driver issue or a monitor issue.[/quote] It also sounds similar to when my video card was failing.
Does this happen with all skins? Does it happen with WindowBlinds disabled?
It looks like you've set your icon size to 'Classic'. At the moment, Fences is set to work with 'Medium' sized icons, which is why you're seeing the overlapping and cutting off.

[quote who="BoXXi" reply="3" id="3086612"]Will the new forums force everyone to use punctuation, and spell words correctly, and not use "text speak", and, and, and.............. I'll think of something!!! [/quote] If such technology existed, its creator would be filthy stinking rich.
[quote who="starkers" reply="266" id="3086757"]So if this new downloader is going to be a while longer, how does one who hasn't already got it get SDC to manage their apps? I went to a SDC download page but cannot access it. Clicking the download button takes me to a page where an email address is required. There are two options, one for new accounts, and a link for retuning customers, but when I click that all I get is a page to update my details and no link from there
If you can get to it, click the 'About WindowBlinds' button at the top, then the 'Copy to clipboard' button, then paste it here so we can see what it says.
