I even tried the location ID for the weather docklet, and still no go

Thanks for the hard work you guys put into this.

I setup my docks with some of the new docklets and saved the theme. When I went to apply it to see if everything was saved it gave me a dock on the bottom with nothing on it. I went into programs\stardock\objectdock\themes folder and it wasn't there, so I did a search for it and found it Documents\Objectdock Library\Backup and the .ini file was 2kb when I opened it up it had nothing todo with my docks or my settings.

So how do you save themes? and I never understood why there is an ObjeckDock Library in the docs folder when all my icons and pngs are in the programs folder.

It did crash on me a few times: Crash Dump with the following error MDMPҤ(Q

Guys,

I've found a way to solve the IE slow problem. In the Objectdock properties/General/"Troubleshooting Options" check both the "System Hooks" checkboxes.

Thanks that, my IE is OK again.

Del.

the "RAM docklet" was part of the previous version of object dock. When I installed the 1.9 version, it kept the previous docklets in the list.




Yes, I rebooted. always says: "ObjectDock was unable to find the start menu to show. Can not show start menu at this time, please try again."

Od 1.9 plus, like rlsima78
My vista machine the original startmenu docklet doesn't work. Everytime I try to use it, objectdock ask me to "try later"... strange.
But startmenu v2 docklet by AndreasV , work fine.

It worked. thanks!

job well done stardock   

it does seem to work much smoother then before   

Verrrry smooth zooming   

Couple of small niggles. The start menu docklet sometimes triggers DEP in XP and the weather docklet doesn't work for locations outside the US.

Fuzzy ! Work fine for me here in Europe .
Just build startmenu don't work

I've been looking forward to this and it certainly doesn't disappoint.Great stuff!  

Fantastic... Love the new upgrades and features - I wouldn't be without this program now and have it installed on my computers at home and work. One quick question though... Any chance of released a full icon pack for the new bundled icons, coz they're great!

This is awesome. I love the fact that the thumbnails for the taskbar are "live." As I scroll up and down a webpage, the little firefox icon's thumbnail image scrolls up and down too! That's really neat.

How can you do that? Are you using plus?

I think that's a vista feature. On XP, even with plus, it only displays the contents of a window when it's minimized so it just basically takes a screenshot of it. I still love that feature, that and the "show only minized windows in taskbar" option - before that I never used the taskbar in object dock because it would get very big very quick but with this thing it's actually usable now. Kudos!

I found a small bug though - if you set it to hide off screen on maximized applications, it doesn't restore the dock if the maximized application has been minimized and no other windows are open. If there's another window that is not minimized then the dock comes back.

I'm using Vista, and i can't get live thumbnails only with windows media player. Is that an OD+ feature?

Yeah, I'm running Vista and OD+. I'm very glad to see Stardock releasing some Vista eye-candy. (Can't wait to see the new version of WindowFX!)

nikay: re the weather, in Canada I'm finding that my city, province abbreviation (i.e calgary, ab) works. I wonder if something similar might work for Australia? Fuzzy, possibly the same for you?

is there a way to fix start menu helper

ummm... ever since i installed the objectdock or something my Desktop Earth Dreamscene pauses itself (but the weird thing is it doesnt recognize that it is paused so i cant resume it i have to go into preferences and play around with it inorder for it to resume.

Is anyone else experiencing this issue??

Hi, I tried all combo for my country in the weather docklet. Didn't work.

I'm from singapore. I tried

Singapore, Singapore
SN, Singapore
SG, Singapore
Singapore, SN
Singapore, SG
SNXX0006

None of them worked.
Can someone help test it out? thanks!

I have a problem with the update. When OD+ is running, and I minimize a window, it pauses for 1-2 seconds before actually minimizing. If I close OD+, the pause goes away, so I know it's not a problem with my Vista setup. I tried disabling all thumbnail and DWM features, also disabled window-event hooking. I also disabled all docklets. Nothing helped. I get the pause everytime.

I always have windows explorer open and I have it on my dock...but I've noticed with this upgrade the running indicator will just disappear even though I still have windows explorer open. So I have to click on the icon, running indicator shows up, then close the new explorer window, and then it just disappears again. *sigh*

Edit: well 1.9 just gave up the ghost and vanished for no reason so I've restored my 1.5 archive.

1.9 free is SWEET SWEET SWEET...I am loving it.  

I'm really liking this great piece of software, but It doesn't open my start menu. Every time I want to it says it was unable to find it. Is there any way to fix that so I can finally chuck out the old windows bar? (I'm using XP SP2)

I faced that problem too, and it was not so cool to launch another explorer window every time just to bring opened ones to the front. I was seeking a solution for that. So I tried to create a fake Explorer.exe process in hope that it'll help. Results are that indicator remains for much longer period of time and even if it disappears there is no need to launch new explorer window to active already opened ones - two clicks and I'm ready to use explorer! So how it works? It's simple. Place Explorer.exe (fake one) somewhere in Program Files, i.e. D:\Program Files\Explorer.exe, and in the Dock Entry Properties window navigate Link text area to D:\Program Files\Explorer.exe. Please look screenshot here http://cid-6979529c9b7b1028.skydrive.live.com/self.aspx/Public/ObjectDock-Explorer-indicator/Explorer-indicator.jpg (Apple icon actually is the Explorer's dock) Cons: you need to launch Explorer in some other way, for example through Win + E key combination. Launch it ones and just don't close it later. You can download Explorer.zip here. http://cid-6979529c9b7b1028.skydrive.live.com/self.aspx/Public/ObjectDock-Explorer-indicator/Explorer.zip Free of viruses, you can check file with the help of the following site: http://online.us.drweb.com/ http://virusscan.jotti.org/ http://virscan.org/ Or you may download source code and compile it yourself. Source code for Visual Basic v6.0 http://cid-6979529c9b7b1028.skydrive.live.com/self.aspx/Public/ObjectDock-Explorer-indicator/|_Project-fake-explorer-process.zip Explorer.exe process can be terminated through Windows Task Manager, but be careful to not end the real explorer.exe process. I hope that will help and wish you a great user experience. Peace. PS: I'm running Windows XP SP3
