Issue with Windows Live and Skype on OD, not notifying of new messages

September 19, 2011 2:51 PM from

I have just installed ObjectDock and am finding that when I get a new message, I am not notified by way of a blinking triangle or bouncing icon, etc. How do I turn this on?

Don't refer to google, please, I've been googling for days, and that's the reason I came here.

Same problem here. i can only see the bouncing icon if i choose to visualize minimized icons. Main MSN icon just doesn't bounce on a new received message

How do you choose to visualize minimized icons?

Right Click on your dock:

Settings --> View --> Show minimized windows.

But this trick activates an alternative animation for icons, that is slower than the default windows 7 one. And even setting it to "fastest" the animation is sometimes laggy, and i don't think it's an hardware issue.

I'm on an i7 (1,60 Ghz) 6 GB of RAM and a GeForce 230m.

Bye

I had to disable aero to get a non glitchy window animation..
