ObjectDock + quick launch ShowDesktop

March 16, 2008 8:48 AM from

Please tell me is there still an issue where Object Dock hides when Show desktop quick launch button is pressed?

Is there still an issue even in 1.9 plus version?

And how to fix it if i want to use show desktop on quick launch, and don't want bottom dock always on top?

Thank you.

Since Show Desktop causes a full screen, borderless, explorer window, to open on top of everything, I don't think the 'issue' can ever be resolved

You can use.

Winkey + M to minimize all
Winkey + shift + M to restore all

Or

Copy and paste the following into a text file and save it as ShowDesktop.vbs. Then create a new shortcut linked to this file.

Set Shell = CreateObject ("Shell.Application")
Shell.MinimizeAll
Set Shell = Nothing

and

Copy and paste the following into a text file and save it as RestoreAll.vbs. Then create a new shortcut linked to this file.

Set Shell = CreateObject ("Shell.Application")
Shell.UndoMinimizeAll
Set Shell = Nothing

OR

Copy and paste the following into a text file and save it as ToggleDesktop.vbs.
Then create a new shortcut linked to this file.

Set Shell = CreateObject ("Shell.Application")
Shell.ToggleDesktop
Set Shell = Nothing
