Various issues, WindwBlinds, Fences

I finally updated to Windows 7 and installed all the SD updates.  I'm having two problems.  I can't get WindowBlinds to show in the system tray and I am unable to find how to dekete a Fence.  I thought I used to right-click the Fence to remove it.

Ok I figured out how to delet a Fence.  Only isse left is the WB tray icon.

If you click your tray arrow is it in the hidden items gevansmd? If it is just click the Customize link and set it to "Show icon and notifications".

 

If it is not in the hidden items, open Windowblinds and click the settings icon in the upper right (the gear if you are using WB8), and in the settings check the box that says "Show icon in system tray.... etc." That should fix it.

Thanks.  I'm using Object Doc 2+ so the tray icons aren't hidden.  In case it was a problem with OD, I shut it down and checked the regular system tray.  No icon.  The option to show it is checked, it's not not showing it.

WB problem is solved.  For some reason the tray property for the WB icon was set to always hide.  

 

But now I have a new problem to report.  Aero peek is not working with Object Dock.  I tested without OD running and W7 is correctly showing the right image.  Running OD the image is either completely black or transparent.  I keep my running icons on the left side of my screen.  When I hover them I only see the dock base, the rest is clear.  But as I move the mouse away and they strat to hide, they show the correct image.  The bottom launch tray always shows black.

I would first suggest to do a complete uninstall of ObjectDock, and remove any remaining folders.  Then download the latest version from your account.

Otherwise, your best bet is to start a support ticket with [email protected].

Update:

Turning off UAC fixed the Aero Peek, start at boot time and drag and drop problems.

The Start Menu from the OD start icon is still only half formed. There seems to be a connection to WB8. The standard Aero sking works properly. ALso, when I invoke the Start menu from the OD start icon, it grabs a lot of CPU and holds it as long as I have the menu open.
