[quote who="c242" reply="13" id="2593109"]As the Dell dock is exclusive for Dell, we all don't know if Dell would really like to have Stardock have the very same functionality in a commercial product. I wouldn't have too high expectations. What I would like to see is flyouts enhanced with stacks and grids. Pretty the same functionality.[/quote] but the category feature of the dell dock, is in the impulse dock. and it's also cool that the impulse dock wi

but aren't some of these things already been done? like this one specifically in the dell dock and impulse dock?
would be nice if they included features from dell and impulse dock into the new dock. i haven't seen anything new yet in this new version
[quote who="Randall30" reply="165" id="2584831"]Beta means not done you are testing it and new things will be added. Thiis is how most beta programs work any how. I am betting you will be able to add your own theme in the next update or so. You paied to save $10 when it is release. Stardock explain this is not retail so why are people getting upset? If you want a finish product stick with 1.9[/quote] actually, in the development world, Beta means alm
well, back on my performance issues, back to running like crap, what seems like 5 FPS now that i've added more icons and whatnot, getting kind of a pain in the butt, but it is beta so we'll see. wondering when we'll get some stardock feedback, and when we'll get a upcoming feature list, would like to know whether or not it's going to be able to compete with other docks out there
ok, well, i think it is because i had no video drive installed when i installed OD+2, i uninstalled it, cleaned out all traces and reinstalled and now it works fine, and still working fast. pretty happy about that!
now that i look at it, even the hold shift to slow down animation is not working either. hmmmm, whats up with that?
i reformatted my PC to see if it fixed the performance issue, i was due anyways, and it did fix it. but now when i minimize a window, it no longer does the minimize animation to OD which was very kewl, reminded me of the old winFX stuff which i love. how do i enable that? i must be missing a setting i hit before thank

gotcha neil, sorry my misunderstanding

I'd like to see the My Document, My Videos, etc folders point to the Libraries in Windows 7 instead of the Users folders. Also, it would be great if OD would be able to do the preview windows like the Win7 taskbar.

On some machines the right hand side may appear solid black with Aero and on others it may appear transparent blue (with blur under it) It depends on your Aero theme settings.[/quote] why does it have to be an OS level issue? it works just fine with Nexus Dock and windowsbl

it's a bug in cursorFX, it's not directX, this is a quote from stardock. i just wish they would fix it, having a paid app for years not working is unacceptable

I don't know about other OS', but on W7 x64, the right side of the start menu is missing when it is activated by the built in start menu docklet. This might actually be a conflict between the docklet and WindowBlinds. I haven't even tried it with Aero.[/quote] it works with Aero no prob, and it can be done as the start menu dockl

ok Neil, so what would be my next step here with MP? my primary machine was formatted about a week ago, still showing the symptons on the second. the second machine i have disabled all services and startup with msconfig, except for MP, still showing the issue. i'm thinking i should reformat that machine and see if it still occurs or not. to me it seems GPU related, and anything that uses it seems to kill it, i recently had an overheating problem which dell came out a
