Please help: removing entry titles?

from Stardock Forums

Hi


 


This is my first post to this forum. I'm a new Objectdock user, and would like to know how to remove/delete the entry titles that appear above or below Objectdock icons. I can delete the entry titles for some icons (program shortcut icons like Word, Photoshop etc.), but I can't find a way to get rid of the text above icons like running applications, the clock etc.


If I could change the font color to black, that will do the trick, but I can't even do that. Is this possible? How about setting font size to 0 (smallest I can go is 7)?


I know this is an odd question, but I really don't want ANY text appearing above or below my icons.


Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the feedback.

This is a real limitation, especially for people wanting to create icon-driven desktops or interfaces with no text. The only workaround I can think of is creating a ttf font with no characters, but it shouldn't be necessary to do this. It's really a very simple thing to code, and a major oversight for such a configurable application.

Hi

Adding to the post above, I have now found a solution. As I suspected, you have to create an "empty" font. I used a font editor, saved a new empty font as a ttf file, loaded the font in Windows, then specified the font in Objectdock.

If anyone needs the empty font I created, feel free to e-mail me.
